Re: Data type TEXT

Hi,

Thank you Morgan for replying my e-mail.  Hope you can help me further.

Does this mean that I have to modify my program instead of handling it at 
the form to call a script that copy the document and then launches the eg. 
winword?
How do I update the content of text file to the database field which I 
declare as TEXT?  Can I view the content of the field using ISQL?

Thank you.
