    Is it possible to store a picture file in MS Access Database using DAO?

    yes, but it's not a good idea...

    the picture doesnt seem to be saved with much in the way of compression, and you end up with a huge database

    it's usually best to store the path to the file...

    if you really want to do it, create a field of type OLEObject, and away you go...
