    Hi,

    I am afraid - you cant do that in CRM - the closest data type is and "Image" type field. But that cannot be used for any other purpose apart from setting an image for entity.

    Hi ,

    Unfortunately dynamics CRM does not support Byte[] Array Data type field. I would suggest to use single line of text field and encode  Byte[] Array Data to base64  and store single line text field.

    hi Goutam,

    Yes i had already try for  this  case, when I convert to base64 encoded(byte[]): Data length is around 46000  and it seems too huge for one record. That's why I am finding for byte [] data type field.
