Does this mean:

(1) I need to find the original .gif files (which currently seems to
be the only supported format by Paradox)

(2) Write e.g. a c program with embedded sql statements
(based on, declare cursor etc ...)

(3) Preprocess it with gpre

(4) Compile it (e.g. with gcc)

to transfer a BLOB? I hoped that some existing software could cope
with this - but that is not the case or ??

I'm going to use the BLOBs from Paradox through the BDE (if
possible). Are there any limitations from BDE (e.g. on segment length
<= 255) that I should know of ? Do Paradox run with a fixed segment
length ?

Thanks in advance,

Michael
