I am designing a stock control system for a college project.

I am making a item entry form so that a new item can be entered. once
the details have been entered, my client can choose a suitable picture
for it that is shown when choosing the product to buy later.

I have got some code which gets a picture and adds it to a picture box
on my form. but i want to save this to my database as text format.

how do i do this?


This is the code i used to assign the picture to a image box

Private Sub Command14_Click()

Image15.Picture = LaunchCD(Me)

End Sub


Thanks in advance

You should really not store images in the database as this will cause
excessive database bloat.

What you should do is provide a link to the image stored in a separate
location.
