VB + MySQL -> Picture

  • 19 years ago

    How to store a picture (jpg, tif...) to and from MySQL by using VB and then display it in a form?

    a) how are you connecting to the MySQL db?
    b) try looking at the BLOB data type for storing binary data in a MySQL db

    I would love to know how to do that.  I have been doing SQL for a while now and never heard of that.


    I know the Database stores the URL's of the images. I would just like to store them in it. :-)
