ADO Upload and Retrieve ORACLE BLOB
To upload and retrieve ORACLE BLOB File using ADO Recordset.
Never try with other than ORACLE database, but i think i can ...
Original Author: Herman Ibrahim
Inputs
File Name
BLOB / LongRaw Field Name
ADO Blob RecordSet
Assumptions
I get this function somewhere from microsoft.com
Then the function is rewritten to make sure that it is easy to use and reuse...
Returns
Boolean
Code
Function AddLongRaw(ByVal strFileName As String, ByRef objRecSet As ADODB.Recordset, ByVal strFieldName As String) As Boolean
'How to call AddLongRaw function :
'dim bool as boolean
'dim objRecSet as new adodb.recordset
'dim strFieldeName as string
'strFieldName = objRecSet.Fields("YOUR_BLOB_FILE").Name
'bool = AddLongRaw(strSourceName, objRecSet, strFieldName)
'if bool then
'Successfully upload the BLOB file into database
'else
'Failed to upload the BLOB file into database
'End If
AddLongRaw = False
Dim ByteData() As Byte 'Byte array for Blob data.
Dim SourceFile As Integer
Dim FileLength As Long
Dim Numblocks As Integer
Dim LeftOver As Long
Dim i As Integer
Const BlockSize = 10000 'This size can be experimented with for
SourceFile = FreeFile
Open strFileName For Binary Access Read As SourceFile
FileLength = LOF(SourceFile) ' Get the length of the file.
'Debug.Print "Filelength is " & FileLength
If FileLength = 0 Then
Close SourceFile
AddLongRaw = False
Exit Function
Else
Numblocks = FileLength / BlockSize
LeftOver = FileLength Mod BlockSize
ReDim ByteData(LeftOver)
Get SourceFile, , ByteData()
objRecSet.Fields(strFieldName).AppendChunk ByteData()
ReDim ByteData(BlockSize)
For i = 1 To Numblocks
Get SourceFile, , ByteData()
objRecSet.Fields(strFieldName).AppendChunk ByteData()
Next i
AddLongRaw = True
Close SourceFile
End If
End Function
Function GetLongRaw(strFileName As String, objRecSet As ADODB.Recordset, strBLOBFieldName As String) As Boolean
GetLongRaw = False
Dim ByteData() As Byte 'Byte array for file.
Dim DestFileNum As Integer
Dim DiskFile As String
Dim FileLength As Long
Dim Numblocks As Integer
Const BlockSize = 10000
Dim LeftOver As Long
Dim i As Integer
FileLength = objRecSet.Fields(strBLOBFieldName).ActualSize
' Remove any existing destination file.
DiskFile = strFileName
If Len(Dir$(DiskFile)) > 0 Then
Kill DiskFile
End If
DestFileNum = FreeFile
Open DiskFile For Binary As DestFileNum
Numblocks = FileLength / BlockSize
LeftOver = FileLength Mod BlockSize
ByteData() = objRecSet.Fields(strBLOBFieldName).GetChunk(LeftOver)
Put DestFileNum, , ByteData()
For i = 1 To Numblocks

'============
'The object file is now located at strFileName
