  #3650391

  Hi guys,

  Need some help, as I really do not understand XQUERY.

  I have this XQUERY, which is the purpose is to convert an image column in my SQL Server table ->

  "select cast('' as xml).value('xs:base64Binary(sql:column(""image""))', 'varchar(max)') as [Image] from CompanyImage"

   

  The problem is this code seems to convert to base64 text string. I'm not really understand what is base64 text string, but I do not want this conversion, I want to remove the code 'cs:base64Binary' stuff.

  Something like this :

  "select cast('' as xml).value('sql:column(""image""))', 'varchar(max)') as [Image] from CompanyImage"

  but that statement give me error syntax.

  What is the correct syntax I should write ?

   

  Thanks in advance,
