[Zope] RE: Blobs in Interbase

[Ashley Lloyd]

Hi Bob,

If you don't mind doing that, I'd really appreciate it.
Nothing I seem to be trying to install at the moment seems to be working.

As with Phil, mine is from a Plone install, but I have got other versions of
Python elsewhere, (I think there's even an old Zope standalone instance
still lurking somewhere, altho I don't think it can run) just to confuse
matters.
Anyway, my Zope is even older - 2.6.1, so hopefully it'll be compatible.

Thanks very much again for your help.

Ashley
