Dave, Any hint on the latter part of your statement? Is that where I'd need to convert to base64 or to string and then store in the db and when pulled out do tobinary()? What exactly is it coming out of the db as when I insert it? Notice in my first post, I'm having trouble inserting as well. Not quite sure of all the conversions that need to happen at the moment. Any advice you can give would be great!

I'm using CFMX > 6.1. The VARIABLE attribute is new to CFMX 7. In the absence of this attribute, you will need to either write the file to disk then use CFCONTENT to refer to the file, or you will need to encode the binary content appropriately then output it yourself after the CFCONTENT tag.
