Well, please don't be offended, I was just wondering. To some extent yes, it could be almost the same. For the Html document you are storing -though I'd prefer to store it in the Db as text. This would be much easier-, the Html text itself won't be changed, but you wil find some binary OLE Metadata at the begining of the doument. You just got to ignore it in your Stream, and begin reading from the first Html tag -eg. <html>, or <body>, etc..-. That should do it, but then you have to treat it like text and not binary like storing it in a string and saving it to html file. Also the images of the html page won't be saved in the Db, and when you extract the file and save it to "something.html" you will only get the html and no pictures -except of course if they are online pictures, and you were connected-. I hope I was close enough this time. -- modified at 22:29 Sunday 15th October, 2006 Oh! I almost forgot. About the metadata at the end, just ignore whatever is after the </html> tag. BTW: How do you extract the Oleobject from you Db in C# code?
