  Hi, I have a VERY URGENT question on C# in ASP.NET. I am building an ASP.NET WEB application.
  
  Does anyone know how to retreive BINARY image from a SQL Server 2005 Express Database and DISPLAY it on a Datagrid control?
  
  I can manage to retreive the Binary Data, but I have absolutely no idea how it can be placed into the dataset, or accessed via the Databinder.
  
  I can only display regular string data onto a Datagrid Control. This is my method in displaying string data onto a Datagrid:
  
  1. From the Codebehind, I connect to the database.
  2. I then use a DATASET and store the retreived data
  3. In the HTML page, I use the Databinder to load the data (<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"NAMEOFDATABASECOLUMN") %>
  
  However this method only works for strings, I need to display Binary Image, can anyone help me? Or does anyone know anywhere with similar examples?
  
  Thank you!!!
