Hi Maurice, That sounds reasonable. And how do you move the BLOB from the Server to the Client?
I see several possibilities: - Keep the BLOB in a variable and move the variable from the Server to the Client. - Store the BLOB in a field (Record), the Client can access the Record by e.g. a query. - Move the Document (not a BLOB) from the Server to the Client by use of the Resources folder. I see advantages/disadvantages for each of the solutions. What works well for you?
