    I want to set up a access database which will link to some pictures on the server... then I want to be able to call the pictures from the database through my asp and have them populate a table or page or whatever...

    I am using a response.write in my asp but when I call the picture from the DB the output to my webpage is like a 3? inplace of the picture

    I have my database field for the picture setup as ole??

    Is this correct...

    Please advise,
    Hakan

    I do not believe you can use an Access database to store images in the manner you want to use them because Access does not have a BLOB (Binary Large Object) field type. You could use the database to store a string that points to the location of the image on the server and then put that into the SRC attribute of the image tag.
