----------------------------------------------------------- From: SriSamp Message 3 in Discussion You should ideally be using the IMAGE data type of SQL Server. Storing Word documents as TEXT (or NTEXT) can sometimes corrupt formatting information. The IMAGE data type stores it as binary. Once you have an IMAGE column, you can read from that column and create back the Word document which can then be streamed to the client (if you are using a web application). The user can then upload the document back to the database and you can again store it back in binary.
