ADO Stream object:
SaveToFile Method
The SaveToFile method can be called when you want to save the
binary contents of a Stream object to a local file. This can be an
already existing file or a newly created file. After the save is
accomplished, the position will be set to zero (Position=0). If you save
to an existing file, all existing bytes contained in the file will be
completely overwritten.
This method does not change or affect the Stream object in any way.
There is one mandatory and one optional parameter.
