Unfortunately the lack of blob support is a deal breaker for me. I need to
have the use of TDBMemo. The app I need to write requires notes in many
locations. I.e. I need notes on customers, notes on Vendors, Notes on
inventory, etc.. Unless someone can provide a work around I'm stuck. I
considered use a 254 Varchar but that won't work because some of the current
data has 800+ chars. In postgres I actually need data type 'Text' (same as
blob with a different name. But I wonder why postgres has Text and blob.)
So guys what can I do????
John
