Q: Accessing File-Stream Data Methods (T-SQL and Managed API) I have "File-Stream" enabled database. I have created table with column that has the "file-stream" attribute and manage to record successfully row in the table. So, what I have got is image stored in my "File-Stream" as BLOB.
What is my problem?
I have to get this image and show it in the web browser using classic asp (I am total newbie in this server-language and I am not allowed to use the asp.net). I have searched and read a lot (there are many information about doing that with asp.net and almost nothing showing how to do this with classic asp) and found a article (http://www.simple-talk.com/sql/learn-sql-server/an-introduction-to-sql-server-filestream/) that shows to ways to read the data:
"Accessing FILESTREAM Data using TSQL" and "Accessing FILESTREAM data with Managed API"
The first one I have been able to understand and use. The second one (there is a example with vb.net code) I haven't been able.
This is the code:
'Create a connection to the database

Dim ConStr As String

ConStr = "Data Source=JACOBXPS\katmaifs;Initial Catalog=NorthPole" & _

     ";Integrated Security=True"

Dim con As New SqlConnection(ConStr)

con.Open()

'Retrieve the FilePath() of the image file

Dim sqlCommand As New SqlCommand()

sqlCommand.Connection = con

sqlCommand.CommandText = "SELECT ItemImage.PathName() AS PathName " + _

                     "FROM items WHERE ItemNumber = 'MS1001'"

Dim filePath As String = sqlCommand.ExecuteScalar()

'Obtain a Transaction Context

Dim transaction As SqlTransaction = con.BeginTransaction("ItemTran")

sqlCommand.Transaction = transaction

sqlCommand.CommandText = "SELECT GET_FILESTREAM_TRANSACTION_CONTEXT()"

Dim txContext As Byte() = sqlCommand.ExecuteScalar()

' Open and read file using SqlFileStream Class

Dim sqlFileStream As New SqlFileStream(filePath, txContext, FileAccess.Read)

Dim buffer As Byte() = New Byte(sqlFileStream.Length) {}

sqlFileStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)

'Bind the image data to an image control

Dim ms As MemoryStream = New MemoryStream(buffer)

Dim bmp As Bitmap = New Bitmap(ms)

ItemImage.Image = bmp

'Cleanup

sqlFileStream.Close()

sqlCommand.Transaction.Commit()

con.Close()

I was not able to transform this in classic asp but in the same article I have read something more frustrating:

When accessing FILESTREAM data using TSQL, SQL Server reads the content of the >FILESTREAM data file and serves it to the client. SQL Server memory is used for reading >the content of the data file. Accessing FILESTREAM data using Win32 Streaming does not >use SQL Server memory. In addition it allows the application to take advantage of the >Streaming capabilities of the NT File System.

So what is my real problem?
Can be the vb.net code transform and used in a classic asp?And if it can, does that mean that when I am using the "file-stream" enable futures and want to display data in the web it will be more slow then using desktop application?
I am pretty confused and will appreciate any answer or link with article to read.

A: A little confused on the question but if all you're trying to do is display some BLOB data from the database as an Image on the webpage then you should have an "image.asp" page that looks something like this ...
SQL = "SELECT FILE_NAME,IMAGE_FILE FROM tblImages WHERE ID = " & request("id")
Set rs =db.Execute( SQL )
if not(rs.eof) then

    Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
    Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=" & rs("FILE_NAME")
    Response.BinaryWrite rs("IMAGE_FILE")
else
    response.Write("No such record found in the database at row " & request("id"))
end if

Why was the machine gun so effective in World War I?
Wars are never welcome, but sometimes they are unavoidable. When the war breaks out, the more technologically progressive side becomes advantageous in the conflict. Nevertheless, when no one is technologically dominant, tactics gets crucial.
Machine gun proved to be the most important weapon in the First World War (Ellis, 1986). However, at the very beginning of this so-called Great War, it was not considered as powerful as it eventually turned out to be. According to Willbanks (2004), when the war started, the general allocation of machine guns on the Allied side was about 24 guns per division, while it increased to 160 per division by the end of the war.
With regard to the number of soldiers that took part in this warfare on both sides, the main goal was to "annihilate the enemy as cheaply and as quickly as possible" (Ellis, 1986, p. 113), and machine gun met this need successfully. It is remembered that in a battle which took place on 1 July 1916 between British and German troops on the Somme River, two British battalions were literary wiped-out in just a few minutes by a single machine gun (Willbanks, 2004; Middlebrook, 1971).
Being effective in the battlefield, machine gun also turned "the old styles of warfare upside down" (Willbanks, 2004, p. 74). Instead of hand-to-hand tactics, or frontal attacking against trenched enemy, as it was the case on the Somme, the machine gun produced new ways of conducting warfare.
So, the importance of the machine gun in the WWI was twofold; it effectively could eliminate large portion of enemy soldiers in a very short period of time, while its use made a breakthrough in the field of tactics, introducing new ideas and new approaches in waging a war.

Deciding on yet another UI model – it's not obvious!
A few weeks ago I wrote about the UI for my eaForms AddIn. As I said then I had tried various different option, all trying to stay close to what I think of as the "EA approach" which lead to the use of a special diagram type with an associated MDG toolbox. The argument for this model was the idea of maintaining a UI that would familiar to existing EA users and not confuse them with a new approach.
Sorted – I made my early access trial version available – and wait for feedback.
I got feedback about little bugs, due to different environments which meant a few additional checks but the most surprising was the feedback which suggests I really need to have a WYSIWYG designer; the idea that an EA diagram can translate into a windows form doesn't seem to click with all.
Although my initial experiments used EA diagrams as the foundation it wasn't the obvious solution. It was the discussions with colleagues that convinced me to take the EA diagram route, not least due to implicit familiarity to EA users plus EA's drawing tools.
And so I've added a WYSIWYG eaForm designer (now available in the trial download). The great fact of this approach is that a lot of the code that is used to generate the run-time forms is also used in the eaForm Builder, and hence they should present in a vary similar manner.
Now that doesn't mean the EA diagram approach is lost or does it? Not yet – both remain in the AddIn as Designer clients – and furthermore both coexist and can be used together if needed. A designer can use the eaForms diagram or eaForms Builder and even switch between them as I keep the form data in sync.
With the multiple design client model the current AddIn is a toolset which has many options. Hence I'm now and looking to getting the feedback that helps me understand if I continue to provide these options or do I simplify and go back to a single WYSIWYG designer and pull out all the other code?
Developing this AddIn has been a great experience, and, although the time taken could be seen as frustrating, it probably means that I've thought more about the product. All in all better all round.
With this post I'll wish you all the best as we move into 2014 for another year of exploringEA.

It's Invest Diva's Kiana Danial https://www.investdiva.com/ with News BTC and here's a summary of what's been going on in the cryptocurrency market in the past few days. First off the results of the poll that I announced in last week's video are in! Across our social media channels and on YouTube's comments section, the majority of you voted in favor of Ripple's XRP as the best investment choice in top 100 cryptocurrencies. Cardano's ADA came in second, while Stellar Lumens (XLM) came in third. There was a large number of Credits (CS) defenders as well, vocalizing their opposition over Weiss Ratings who has ranked the digital currency poorly. In other news, Japan's Financial Services Agency (FSA) unexpectedly granted the cryptocurrency industry a self-regulatory status on Wednesday. This gives the Japan Virtual Currency Exchange Association permission to regulate the industry players on its own. Also in Japan, Sony Computer Science Lab announced last week that they've been working on a contactless cryptocurrency hard wallet for cold storage which will directly compete with the current industry favorites like the Ledger Nano S and Trezor wallets which use a USB to connect to your computer. However, this new wallet would allow you to transfer your coins from any device using a near-field communication (NFC) chip, and to ditch the cord completely. This announcement may indicate that Sony could be eyeing a bigger move into the crypt industry. On the news, Sony's stock price (SNE) saw minor gains, before it rode on the global equity meltdown last week. Speaking of volatile markets, Bitcoin (BTC) hasn't been seeing much of it in the past week, as it's been moving in the narrowest range since 2017, right below a bearish Ichimoku cloud, and supported by $6,456. With the Ichimoku cloud getting thinner and thinner, market participants are sitting patiently in the calm before a potential storm that may be coming our way this week. Thanks for watching, invest responsibly and subscribe for more updates.

January was a great month, and the Inflow crew kicked off 2015 with a bang. We were busy wrapping up year-end reports and crafting strategies for the new year. It was also a busy time on our blog! Of course, there was the token technical blog post, but also posts that touched on content promotion, productivity and quality deliverables. Let's dive in!
Rumor has it that our President and fearless leader, Mike Belasco, got back on the blog train and published TWO blog posts in January! One is called 7 Ways to Bake in Content Promotion, and includes great tips on how to create more visibility for your content and brand, such as using optimized #hashtags. More importantly, these are easy and quick ways to better leverage your content that you can start using today – check it out!
Perfect and Late or Good and On-Time?
Mike's other post attempted to answer the question, "Is It Better To Be Perfect And Late Or Good And On-Time?" A lot of the things we do on a day-to-day basis can always be tweaked or improved, so how do we know when what we're doing is "good enough?" I'll let Mike take it from here… Perfect and Late or Good and On-Time.
