I need to generate a file from binary information in sql

Question

I am writing a windows desktop application in visual basic and I need it to connect to a SQL database, take a rows unique id, and using that number generate a file from the binary data that is stored in the SQL database and save it to a file directory.

The part that is hanging me up is the creating the file from the binary SQL data.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

VB6 or .net? You have both tags but the text says only visual basic.
