    How to programetically embed an ole bitmap in a database field

    I need to find a way of embedding an ole object into a database field, so it
    can be retrieved by a Crystal report and displayed as a picture.

    Embedding the bitmap file as a long binary or a blob is easy, but this can
    not be interpreted as an ole object and hence not displayed on the report.

    Any suggestion would be very welcome.

      sql does not store embedded object. You will have to stream the blob to a
      file and use that file in your report.
