| I'd like to insert files into a varbinary(max) field using a script.LikeINSERT INTO MyTable VALUES('MyFile.pdf', -- FileName a varchar(1000) field0x000040F4034....0934 --DATA a varbinary(max) field) I have those questions:1) how do I convert the content of a file into 0x.... ?2) is there a limit to the 0x.... size? Can I use this approach for files of every size (like 100MB)?NOTE1: I am not using this in this way, what I am really trying to do is a CLR stored procedure to insert the file into a server's folder.Something likeexec sp_clr_InsertFile @destination_file_name ='c:\Folder\MyFile.pdf' , @file_contents=0x000040F4034....0934 -- this could be VERY LARGENOTE2: I need to support SQLServer 2005 and newer. |
