Is this doable?  I just looked at the list of datatypes and didn't see
binary as one of them.  Imagining a Real Estate database with pictures
of homes (inside and out), etc. or an employee database with mugshots of
the employees, what datatype would you use to store the pictures (short 
of just storing a filename of the pic)?
