Saving a word document to a table and retreiving it

Hi,
I am using SQL 2000.
I have a web application (asp file using VB Script) I am trying to find a
way to save a word document in a sql table and then later retrieve the
document and display it in a web browser.
I guess I need to use the image type column.
Via my user interface, I need to be able to SELECT(as in: select img1 from
table1 where ....) the word document, update it and then save it in the
database as a column of a table.

Any help with eamples would be appreciated.

thx

Hi,

I've done this before, but it's been a long time ago. It ain't
particularly easy, but once you get it set up, it works fine. Start
with this support article:

If you haven't figured it out by Monday, I'll take a look at out code
when I get back to the office and try to give you some pointers.

Thanks stu!.

Of course I could use any other pointers you can give me. My problem is
going to be how to display the Word document in a web browser(launching a new
browser session?) and give user the option to modify it and then save it
back to the database.

Thanks
