hi list,
with TQuery i used following:

q_mailMAIL field has Blobtyp: ftBlob
(i tried also ftMemo)

reading the blob:

mailstream:= TBlobstream.create(dmx.q_mailMAIL, bmread);
memo1.lines.loadfromstream(mailstream);
mailstream.free;

writing the blob:

q_mail im insertstatus
....
docXstream:= TBlobstream.create(dmx.q_mailMAIL, bmwrite);
memo2.lines.savetostream(docXstream);
docXstream.free;
...
q_mail.post

with TIBOQuery i got a Typ-Error, what can i do?
