How does a BLOB column behave in a disconnected recordset? Is the BLOB
actually marshalled out to the client tier together with the recordset? Or
must the BLOB actually be extracted (i.e. GetChunk'ed) while the recordset
is connected, and returned to the client by other means?

Do you know of any good articles, whitepapers or case studies regarding the
usage of BLOB fields in an n-tier scenario?

Thanks for your help,
