This example demonstrates how to extract files from a binary SOAP MTOM MIME document. DataFlex

    // the top-level header.  The file we have here begins with the first
    // boundary string.

    // The structure the MIME to be loaded is:

    // multipart/mixed (inferred because it is headless)

    //     image/jpeg
    //     image/gif
    //     image/gif
