You can use the SaveToStream method to save a file into a Stream from a FileData type property of a business object:

C#

using(var stream = new MemoryStream()) {
    Resume fileDataHolder = (Resume)View.CurrentObject;
    if(fileDataHolder.File != null) {
        fileDataHolder.File.SaveToStream(stream);
         // Process the saved stream as required:
         // stream.Position = 0;
         // ...
    }
}

VB.NET

Using stream = New MemoryStream()
    Dim fileDataHolder As [Resume] = CType(View.CurrentObject, [Resume])
    If fileDataHolder.File IsNot Nothing Then
        fileDataHolder.File.SaveToStream(stream)
         ' Process the saved stream as required:
         ' stream.Position = 0;
         ' ...
    End If
End Using
