CreateBlobStream( ) is what you use.

You can also just do the MyField.LoadFromFile() or MyField.SaveToFile() as
well.

Subject: [IBO] Storing PDF into Firebird Blobs

Hi, I want to store PDF files into Firebird BLOBs. I assume that the Blob
would be Sub_type 0. I have had a look at some of the code used in some
earlier examples.
Do I have to use the TIB_Dataset>createBlobStream method?

Could someone please give me an example of the code I should use.

Lets assume I have a PDF file at c:\xyz.pdf how would I read this into a
blob?
