The problem is even a bit more compilcated since modern postgresql jdbc drivers with "modern" database map the getBinayStream / geBolb to a bytea The best thing to do I think is to use the jxDBCon jdbc driver and solve the problem there(map blobs to oid's) http://jxdbcon.sourceforge.net/ > > Rob van Maris > > Quantiq > xmedia & communication solutions > ------------------------------------------------------------ > Koninginneweg 11-13 > Hilversum, The Netherlands > mob. 316 42258660 > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > -- Kees Jongenburger Mediapark C101 Hilversum +31 (0)35 6772910
