Picture Object and BLOBs

Hi,

Just checked out the Picture object.

I use this with ORACLE (using ODAC).
If I link it to a BLOB field containing a BMP-file, it works perfectly to print out the picture.

If the BMP was zipped before storing it into the BLOB, fr cannot print it.

What can I do to print zipped BMPs? Easiest way?
Is zip support a feature for the future?

Thanks a lot,

Daniel

    To show that field in the report, use TfrxReport.OnBeforePrint event:

    if Sender.Name = 'Picture1' then
    TfrxPictureView(Picture).Picture.Assign(do_something_with_your_dbfield)

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
