Hello everyone,

This is just a followup to let you know the bug which I found in Revolution at present that prevents binary data operations with PostgreSQL database has been confirmed. It will be fixed in the final release of 2.1 apparently.

In the meantime the workaround which I've discovered, and which works quite well, is to base64encode data then put it into a PostgreSQL text field (which seem, AFAIK, to be able to hold unlimited data). On retrieving the data I do a base64decode to turn it back into binary data. Using this approach I've been able to successfully store image data in PostgreSQL text fields.

So the mystery is solved...
