Extract photo from Rich Text item

HCL Domino Domino Forum
1

We are using a Notes rich text item to store photos for Sametime. Users have been using the “Create | Picture” menu options to import their pictures. Oddly enough though, the pictures are not Embedded Objects and thus cannot be accessed via Lotusscript. I have found if I export the DXL, then I see the binary data for the picture in the DXL, but that does seem to help me (or does it??)

So the question is: how can I extract these pictures from the Rich Text item so we can import them into Connections (one time).
