I am a bit concerned about the memory but I am looking for a way to make
backing up easier and I can always buy more RAM.

So to do this do I just write the content of the file to a Binary field and
store the File Type and then use CFFILE to create a temp file on the server
when it is requested?

I am running

Windows 2000 (will be 2003)

SQL Server 2000

CF5.0

On a DELL 1gig DUAL Pentium with 1 gig of RAM.



Thanks Ben

Rick

It will be something along the lines of "binary" but may depend a bit on
your RDBS.

Just remember, you're going to have to pull it from the DB and store it
in RAM before you serve it this way.  That can be taxing if the files
are big.
