Loading and Saving reports from DB Blob Field

FR4 + D2009

I have talked with several developers that suggest saving and loading reports from a DB Blob field so you don't have to distribute the .FR3 files and do not have to recompile when editing a report.

I think I can figure out the loading from a DB Blob field, but what I don't know is how to save it to a field from the designer.

Am I basically going to need to develop a Delphi App that serves as a designer where I can then control saving to a DB Blob field after the designer closes?

Is there an example on how this can work?

Thanks in advance.

Greg

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.
