This will store the file as a base64 representation of the file.

<cffile action="READBINARY" file="yourfile" variable="blobData">
<cfset blobBase64 = toBase64(blobData)>

Then just insert blobBase64 to an nText field in your db.


To get the file out...

<cfset blobBinary = toBinary(queryname.blobBase64)>
<cffile action="WRITE" file="yourfile" output="#blobBinary#"
addnewline="No" nameconflict="OVERWRITE">

Works for me.

Subject: Can we use CFFILE for this?

Does anyone know how to upload a file into a column in a database table
using Coldfusion? Can we use <CFFILE>?
