    Using C1Zip to compress the content of text file

    Is it possible to use C1Zip to compress the content of a text file before storing it in SQL? I would like to store the contect as TEXT instead of BLOB since BLOB is a lot harder to work with.

    Almost 10 months later, I'm still waiting for a respond to my question.  We have an application that import CSV files into SQL tables but we also need to keep the original CSV content for X number of months.  I am currently saving the CSV data into a VARCHAR(MAX) field.  I would like to know if I can use C1Zip to compress the data before writing to SQL.  Do I need to use VARBINARY(MAX)?

     Thank you
