Adding and retrieving Images from a SQL Server Table

This article describes the process to add and retrieve images from a SQL Server table using ADO.NET. You can possibly have an entry form that will allow the user to choose what operation he wants to do: add or view images. Depending on the option chosen you can display the relevant form.

To add images to the form, following procedure can be used. A textbox can be displayed on the form to accept the desired image filename from the user. This file must be existing on the local machine and can be chosen using a OpenFileDialog instance.
