Please upgrade your browser. This is actually first of the three articles I am going to write on manipulating binary data in the database. After this article you'll be able to upload binary data into database, then in second article you'll learn to get this data out of database and show it as you like and finally in the third article I'll explain uploading files. Getting binary data in and out of databases is expensive, expensive in terms of server resources and time it takes for it. But having said that it is very convenient and in some cases extremely important to save all kind of data at a central place e.g, an ad server.
Possibilities are endless.
The database that I've chosen is Microsoft Access database. Transition form Access to SQL Server is painless. Save it as 'FileDB.mdb' in a safe folder. Now create a new table in design view and save it as 'Files'. When you are ready click 'Next'.
