Thanks Peter, I made those changes, quotes around get revDatabaseColumnNamed(tRecordSet, "image", "tImage”) and *b for the BLOB. I also checked the result and it reported a “1” on the INSERT command and empty on the RevDatabaseColumnNamed call.
But it is still filling the image object with a gray fill and no image? I even eliminated the base64 routines with no luck. This changed the data reported in the BLOB field to: [BLOB- 611 B] from [BLOB - 64 KiB]. But still resulted in a gray fill in the image object when querying for the image. Is there a way to extract the BLOB data manually using phpMyAdmin (download) and manipulate the data directly in LiveCode? Thanks for the advice!
