Hi,

I'm using Interbase 6.0 Open source, and my application is using IBObjects, I have a table with a BLOB field (Subtype 0, Binary), to hold RTF data from word documents, displayed in a TIB_RichEdit component. The whole thing is working fine, I can read / write to the database, everything is displayed perfect.
I did a backup of the database, and from time to time I check if the backup is ok, by doing a local restore, and today I had the following error :

restoring data for table QUOTATION_DETAIL
ERROR: conversion error from string "BLOB"
ERROR: gds_$send failed
Exiting before completion due to errors

I changed the field from Type 0 to 1, but the same error remains. It's strange to me that read / write from / to the database is working fine.

Any idea ?
Thank you very much,

Nico Callewaert
