  At Fr2.5 was a function 'savetoblobfield' a it was very easy to save the report in a blob field in the firebird database.
  At Fr4 I have not found a function to do this .

  At Fr4 you can use function SaveToStream.

  Thanks

  
  To save:
  

  var 
    f: TFileStream;
  begin
    f := TFileStream.Create(fileName, fmOpenRead);
    ...
    ParamByName('YOUR_BLOB_FIELD').LoadFromStream(f);
    ExecSQL;
    ...
    f.Free;
  end;
  

  
  To load:
  

  var 
    report_blob: TBlobField;
    report_stream: TStream;
  begin
    //After querying
    ...
    //In case you use TClientDataSet
    report_blob := yourClientDataSet.FieldByName('YOUR_BLOB_FIELD') as TBlobField;
  
    report_stream := TStream.Create;
    report_stream := yourClientDataSet.CreateBlobStream(report_blob, bmRead);
    
    frxReport.LoadFromStream(report_stream);
    ...  
  end;
  

  
  It works fine for me.
