I mean, I guess the three table limit is just arbitrary? To store a graphic I'd use a file upload field and convert it to a sequence verbatim with a header saying what type it is (using a Content-Type would save processing retrieving the data, and also allow other data types, eg image/jpeg, application/octet-stream, etc.) I don't know if you can automatically get the content type from the file upload field though? Then when you display a record you could detect the type and display it appropriately, eg display the image, offer a download link, stream the flac file etc. To be truly useful you might want to define fields in the databases and add records based on the fields present. But then I guess it's up to whatever application you have in mind :) Gary
