    Hi,

    I want to store some images in the database (bmp/gif what ever is easiest). How do I go about viewing these pictures? I have bound a picture box to the field but nothing is being shown (no errors).

    Any code would be appreciated..

    Bad Idea . . .

    Whoa there! Storing images in a db is BAAADDD!! Store the image location instead and the db is more managable - you can then link (via VBA) the PictureBox Picture property to the loacation field.
