Access Database holding binary data using OLE / BLOB

Hello
I an trying to store a binary data string in an Access database, I can see
you need a OLE field but in not sure how to get C++ Builder to write data to
this field. I normally use FieldByName->AsString for text but this does not
work for binary data. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction
Thanks

Re:Access Database holding binary data using OLE / BLOB

Cast to TBlobField and use TBlobField::LoadFromStream() and
TBlobStream::SaveToStream().
