save image in db

well I have been asked to scan mutilple documents into one tiff file and save it in oracle database.

now please tell me any turorial or sample code for saving image into a db from a file ....

one other thing is there any free or paid control available for displaying tiffs in a vb form ?

thanx in anticipation :)

Use the function LoadPicture to display your image.

Unfortunately a .tiff can't be used though.

Acceptable file types are: .bmp .wmf .ico .cur .jpg .gif

well i have used Kodak ImageEdit control which with vb to display tiff file ... and also managed to save picture file in oracle ... now i was wondering if there is any way that i can store a picture in stored procedure instead of handling it on vb form using appendchunk?

You could use the utl_file built in Oracle package. It allows you to read files with pl/sql.

Hi

Kodak Imaging works in all versions except for Win XP - any solution that can work on XP as well for displaying TIFF files within the VB form.
