Hi Guys,

I have a program that produces some graphs which need to be saved to a
database for printing at a later date.

Bitmaps tend to print out very badly so I have been trying to use WMF or
EMF files (Metafiles) which the TDBChart component can export, problem
is the Graphic field on a Paradox table doesnt accept WMF files.

To add to this, I have to export/print the report (using Rave Reports)
which doesn't seem to be able to read the Metafile from a Binary field.

Does anyone know how I can get a reasonable quality BMP for printing, or
how I can save a Metafile to a Paradox table that RaveReports can read?
Alternatively, can anyone think of away around this?
I thought of writing the Graphs to a directory for use later, but how do
I get RaveReports to choose which image to load for prining?

Thanks to all in advance!
