Type Property (ADO Stream)

       

Indicates the type of data contained in the Stream (binary or text).

Settings and Return Values

Sets or returns a StreamTypeEnum value that specifies the type of data contained in the Stream object. The default value is adTypeText. However, if binary data is initially written to a new, empty Stream, the Type will be changed to adTypeBinary.

Remarks

The Type property is read/write only when the current position is at the beginning of the Stream (Position is 0), and read-only at any other position.
