I am creating an electronic library and would like to store the actual files (not their location) on the sql server in a database. I was thinking about storing the files using BLOB since it will hold alot of data. I started with the code below but as I am new to this, I am unsure how I would save two files in the same save. I have the document file and another file as a cover page.
Code:{ SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Server=Darkover;uid=<username>;pwd=<strong password>;database=northwind"); SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter("Select * From MyImages", con); SqlCommandBuilder MyCB = new SqlCommandBuilder(da); DataSet ds = new DataSet("MyImages"); da.MissingSchemaAction = MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey; FileStream fs = new FileStream(@"C:\winnt\Gone Fishing.BMP", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Read); byte[] MyData= new byte[fs.Length]; fs.Read(MyData, 0, System.Convert.ToInt32(fs.Length)); fs.Close(); da.Fill(ds,"MyImages"); DataRow myRow; myRow=ds.Tables["MyImages"].NewRow(); myRow["Description"] = "This would be description text"; myRow["imgField"] = MyData; ds.Tables["MyImages"].Rows.Add(myRow); da.Update(ds, "MyImages"); con.Close(); }
