I have many Excel workbooks, which have embedded word objects.
My goal is to write something in VBA that would save the word object as a BLOB in an Access database. Another procedure would retrieve the BLOB from the database and insert it into the Excel workbook as a new OLE Object.

I can save/retrieve text to/from Access but I have difficulties with the binary object.

Is this possible?

Thank you all in advance!
