'Doesn't work' is inaccurate and vacuous - sorry - I was walking
out the door when I typed that...
There are two parts to this issue.
1) Read the file in and store it in a database - per my example
2) The second part is to 're-constitute' the file from a (a database)
string back to a binary file.
The whole procedure works fine under r1, but we end up with a
corrupted file with r2 - nothing in the app was changed.
I will do more testing do see if it is on the 'read in' part or the
'write out' part.

What about it doesn't work???
Regards,

Is anyone else having an issue with binary streams from 2006r1 to
2006r2?
We have a method that converts a document into a string - works
file in 2006r1, doesn't work in 2006r2
Function gFileToString( theFolderItem as FolderItem) As String
dim bs as BinaryStream
dim docContent as String
'called to convert a file to a string for storage in the database.
if theFolderItem <> nil and theFolderItem.Exists then
bs = theFolderItem.OpenAsBinaryFile( false ) 'open the file as
a BinaryStream
docContent = bs.Read( bs.Length ) 'read the contents of the
file into a string
bs.close
end if
return docContent
End Function
Thoughts would be appreciated.
