Hi Luc,

 

Personally I would not store this kind of information in the database
itself. It's quite easy to create a link from the database to the file
management system and then you can open the file with the launch command.
The benefit of this approach is a smaller database (important in case of
backup / restore) but also the possibility to open a file of any kind as
long as the extension is known in Windows.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - re: uploading .doc in rbase

 

Hi, 

 

in my Access > Rbase conversion I have come to the point that I have to load
.doc files into the varchar field of an rbase table.

 

What would be the most elegant way to this, considering there are more than
80.000 files to upload in the table....?
