Displaying a photo stored in a blobraster field

I have a feature class which has photos stored in either a Raster or a Blob field. I want to be able to display the stored image within a Report. I have assigned the appropriate DataField to the picture object but it was too much to ask that this would just work. Any help on how I may achieve this would be appreciated. I don't mind whether I'm using a Raster or Blob field. Thanks, Chris

  Hi Chris,   Are you using Essentials for the ADF elements or Essentials REST elements?   Is your BLOB field available to the map or is it published via a data link?   This isn't something we have done yet - I think the simplest solution would be to use the RPX internal scripting (which is powerful enough to access .NET assemblies) to convert the raw bytes of the image into a C# Image object that can be attached to an Active Reports control.   Regards, -Malcolm

  This is a rather old post but still relevant.  I need to display a raster in a report.  

  so I added a script but can't figure out how to get the raster (rpt.Fields["PHOTO"].Value)  to become an image:

  public void detail1_Format()

   

  {   

   

       

   

     System.Drawing.Image image = null;

   // need to set the image to the value of this:   rpt.Fields["PHOTO"].Value  

   

   

      Picture PictureProperty = rpt.Sections["detail1"].Controls["PictureProperty"] as Picture;

   

      PictureProperty.Image = image;

   

  }

  I am also trying to display a photo in a report that is stored in  SQL database as a varbinary field. Any ideas on how to accomplish this?
