Re: Data Abstract Blob Error

I doubt they store the image as chineese characters. It's more likely that
they read it from a file or from a database blob field into a string
(AnsiString in Delphi?) and try to send it out using means provided by
DataAbstract. I think the problem is simply that this string is
transliterated when read/written.
