Is it possible to store large image fiel's on a database then select
them from a search .

    If possible, while they are stored on the postgres database can you
instigate a search of the text held inside them.

            my thanks

Yes, the database supports large objects.   You may need to decide on your
client side requirements to make a better judgment.  For what its worth  ODBC
driver supports OLE objects.

It does sound a bit tricky, but you could create your own functions to
accomplish this.
