Are you getting this error for all of the BLOB fields, or just some ? If it is all of them, then most likely the BLOB (.blb) file was overwritten with a copy from a different table. Sometimes this happens when a user/developer copies the files around and forgets to copy the .blb file. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com
