Complicated question re: Saving a file from SQL server

Lokean
71
Our SQL server database has access databases saved as images contained within recordsets which also contain information about where the particular file came from, creation dates, et cetera.

Does anyone know if it is possible to extract those files stored as 'image' datatype in SQL server and save them to a directory (or directories) on a local machine?

I know that there are various methods to copy files, and to save the results of a query to a file, but I need to extract the image and save that image to a file.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

EDITED TO ADD:

This structure was setup by a third party app and we don't have the source-code.
