Hello,
I'm writing an email application where i need to transfer the attachments of an email to a field in MS Access. On the Access side i have made the field: "Attachment", and this is of type OLE Object. I understand this will allow for storage of embedded documents such as word. In my case it will be compressed zip files. I am trying to accomplish this goal without the aid of the BDE and therefore i am making connections through ADO. I understand that TBlobStream.Write allows for the writing of data to a stream, etc. Is this the or a correct way of going about accomplishing this specific task??? Is there an easier or "better" way? Any suggestions are welcome,
Thanx,
Jason
