[Lazarus] Loading an image to a mysql blob

[Terry A. Haimann]

I had already tried that.  I clicked on edit from the dbnavigator,
uploaded the image and clicked post.  That is when the program would
crash.

I have taken the program a different route, gotten rid of the blob and
replaced it with a varchar.  The varchar now has the filename of the
jpeg.  It's not fast, but it works.
