Informix and Images

I am working on a project which needs to save images to an Informix database. Everything is working fine but i was wondering whether you could help me insert and retrieve images from the database.

I am running Informix IDS 9.4

Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

you can work with BLOB and BYTE data type.
Blob is recommended.
To use it you will need to create a Smart DBspace to storage.
But before to use, read the manual about it because have a lot of implications and tunning when use blob fields (this tunnings will variable as the data size saved into them)
