Saving Images to a BLOB database column - and getting them back again...

Hi,

I'd like to save an image file from a local drive to a blob database column. I can read the file ok, but i'm not sure how to send it to the database. Additionally i would like to read the database and display the file on a web page.

I've tried googling without much success...

Just a pointer in the right direction will be very helpful.

Thanks in advance,

Mike
