What's the problem with TIB_Column.LoadFromFile() and
TIB_Column.SaveToFile()?

Seems to me you are way over-complicating things.

Hi Herbert, If I use WriteFromFileToBlob('C:\db\dell.pdf',
DM.qrScan.FieldByName('PDFIMAGE'));

this puts the PDF file into the blob, but I am having trouble getting it
out and displaying it.

If I try the reverse

procedure TfrMain.Button5Click(Sender: TObject);
var xxx:string;
begin
ReadFromBlobToFile(DM.qrScan.FieldByName('PDFIMAGE'),xxx);
end;

it does not work.
