CRecordet and CLongBinary (BLOB problem)

Instead of using the CLongBinary class use CByteArray. In this I will name this as m_rgBin.

To save a block of binary data:

*** Before this open recordset and make a call to AddNew()
*** or Edit().

// First set size of CByteArray to the size needed.
rs.m_rgBin.SetSize( nSizeNeeded );

// If you are updating an existing record,
// check if it has changed.
// Otherwize ommit this test.
if(memcmp(&rs.m_rgBin[0], pMyData, rs.m_rgBin.GetSize()))
{
    // Its changed.
    // Copy the memory block into the CByteArrar object
    memcpy(&rs.m_rgBin[0], pMyData, rs.m_rgBin.GetSize());

    // Flag field as having a value, and dirty
    rs.SetFieldNull(&rs.m_rgBin, FALSE);
    rs.SetFieldDirty(&rs.m_rgBin, TRUE);
}

// NOTE: If you want to clear the field in the database
//       make this call: rs.m_rgBin.SetSize(0) and also
//       do the SetFieldDirty() call.

*** Somewhere after this call update to store the data.

To load a block of binary data:

// Are the field empty?
if(rs.m_userData.GetSize())
{
    // No, copy to our local buffer pMyData
    memcpy(pMyData, &rs.m_rgBin[0], rs.m_rgBin.GetSize());
}
else
{
    //
    // TODO: Insert code for handling empty field from database.
    //
}

------
THATS IT !!!!!!!!

The key to all this is the two functions SetFieldNull() and SetFieldDirty();
