Hello All, I have a problem with an app that I inherited that was not working properly. The database is MySQL but they want to convert it to a new database after extracting the old data. I do not have much experience with MySQL and I am stumped with one field that they have in the database.
When I view the database via PHPMyAdmin I see that the field in question has a type of Blob with an Attribute of Binary. This field as per the site is supposed to house text longer than a few character so similar to the memo type in Access. When I browse the database throught the MyAdmin it says the the contents of the field are [BLOB - 1 Bytes] or [BLOB - 20 Bytes] How do I extract that information from the as the raw text from this type of field? I bought a MySQL to MSAccess converter and does the trick no problem expect for this field. Any Ideas?
