Why I can´t put a blob text of mysql in a Tmemo??? lazarus / 16-Databases ---------------------------------------------------------------------- drako86 · 2006-11-15 20:26 hi, I go to explain my problem. I have a Tmemo and I want to fill it with some text that I have stored in a blob field in a database, but when I try to take this blob text, Lazarus show a database error  :cry: I do this: memo_comment.lines.Text:= SQLQuery2.FieldByName('comment').Value; When I try to show a window with this memo, Lazarus show this message: Project raised exception class 'EDatabaseError' I don´t know what to do.... Can somebody help me??  :? thanks you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Marc · 2006-11-16 11:19 AFAIK you cannot read blobs as strings like you do here. IIRC you need a blob stream.
