Here is your original statement:

"I am receiving the message in the subject line when I attempt to display a
memo field using a TDBMemo control. Here is how my memo is defined in my
table:
NOTES BLOB sub_type 2 segment size 1[28]"

You are trying to put a binary blob into a memo control - it won't
work. TDBMemo needs a text blob. I suspect what is happening here is that
the client is asking for some special stream format that is "text in a
binary representation". Because you have not defined a Blob filter that
fits these requirements, it's just coming back and saying it can't
represent it.

Change the definition to sub_type 1 or 0, or just drop the sub_type
altogether and IB will just store whatever it receives (it defaults to 0,
unstructured).

Another thing is - if you are using the TIB_ native IBO data access
objects, TDBMemo won't work with them. You need a TIB_Memo.
