I have to access a columm with some BLOBs (with PDF content) in the database. I tried to use "Response.BinaryWrite" but it gives me the following error:

An unhandled data type was encountered.

Is there something that I have to declare first? Does anyone know how to read these BLOB data from the database and display them as pdf files?

Thanks in advance.

The top result seems to fit.

Hi Chris,

The top result is from a forum from which only members can see the result of the answers. But thanks anyway. And I didn't find the answer for my problem yet.

nope, you only need to sign up to see who got the points, and the accepted answer. Scroll down and you will see all the answers given.

Thank you Chris, but I couldn't solve my problem yet. I found some solutions there and in other sites and I realized that many people use the following lines on their code:

Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
Response.BinaryWrite objRs("BLOB_columm")

but what happens is that comes a box trying to open a file, but nothing actually appears. It says that the data I am trying to read may cause some damage to the computer. Do you have any idea of what's happening?
