I'd suggest you use a component that does this for you, remember you'll also need to get it out of the database. Look at www.softartisans.com, they have a component called SAFileUp and it works a real treat, and very simple to work. <br /><br />Good Luck<br />J<br /><br />------------<br />riyadh at 2/24/2002 1:46:40 PM<br /><br /><br />hi,<br />Trying to load images to an sql database and retrieve the same images from the database, N/B using Asp as the middleware.<br />Any assistance will be highly appreciated.<br />Thanks
