Thank you all for the information.
I just wished I knew all the system() variables.
I'm sure it's been asked before, but is there a complete list for all
the system(nnnn) variables and their operations? I'm aware of a number
of them but system(1017) was a new one...

Hi,

Just about to attempt this process from .NET using UODOTNET, anyone have
any
advice off the bat, any concerns I should have?

Thanks,
Pete

Hi Jeff,

I'll recommend a Dynamic UniVerse file (TYPE 30) for storing binary data
like images.
Most likely all records will be stored as "large records" giving almost
direct assess.

It performs fine and there is no practical limits in the total size or
the
no. of records to be stored in a 64BIT file.
Alternatively, you could for administrative reasons spread the images in
more 32BIT files each holding maybe 2GB.
The internal format of Dynamic files makes it also a protected way of
storing READONLY images.

Using TYPE 1 or 19 files will slow down the OS system, if you have
hundreds
of thousands or millions of images

You will need a TYPE 1or 19 file as a temporary place for moving binary
files to and from the Dynamic file.

Any UniVerse reads and writes to the TYPE 1 or 19 file must by binary.
E.g.:
   READ IMAGE.RECORD FROM F.DYNAMIC.FILE, IMAGE.ID ELSE
   END
    ASSIGN SYSTEM(1017) TO 1  ;* binary on
    WRITE IMAGE.RECORD TO F.TYPE19_FILE, IMAGE.ID
    ASSIGN SYSTEM(1017) TO 0   ;* binary off

The method may be different in UniData.
