DOCX Word document not displaying images when downloaded from a database.

I'm using ColdFusion 2018, Oracle 12c, and IIS 10.  I setup a page to upload Microsoft Word files with a DOCX file extension into a BLOB field into the database.  When I use the website to open the file all I see is the text.  The problem is I do not see any images that were pasted into the file before it was uploaded. 

 

In IIS there is a MIME Type of DOCX.   

 

The upload query is similar to:

<cfquery datasource="my_dsn">

INSERT INTO my_db_table (

File_Name,

File_Content

)

VALUES (

<CfQueryParam CfSqlType="cf_sql_varchar" value="#File_Name_Value#">,

<CfQueryParam CfSqlType="cf_sql_blob" value="#File_Content_Value#">,

)

</cfquery>

 

The query to get the file from the database is similar to:

<cfquery datasource="my_dsn" name="my_query">

SELECT File_Name, File_Content

FROM my_db_table

WHERE File_Id = "#File_Id_Value#"

</cfquery>
