Error when trying to save a BMP file from image control in an Access 97 db
Daniel:
You may want to review the following tip:
Some months ago I wrote a tip of the month that I call 'Store then Retrieve
a File from a Jet Database Field'. Link to http://www.buygold.net/tips then
look for the October 2000 tip of the month. A sample program is provided.
From the tip's intro:
I recently had a requirement to store a picture in a Jet [Access]
database. I had never done this before so I posted a question in a couple of
the news groups. I got suggestions on how to store the picture but I didn't
get any real code - so I wrote some VB code to test the suggestions. I
generalized the code, encapsulated it in a DLL, and decided to make it the
October tip-of-the-month.
Cheers,
Larry Rebich
