I am able to write an image to a SQL table. The problem I am having is understanding how to retrieve the image from the table AND display it on a page along with the other page content.
Does anyone have an example or an article to help me with this procedure? I have searched the discussion and read a few articles but they all talk about reading an image into a datagrid which isn't what I want.
I'm trying to retrieve an image that I have stored in a SQL Server db, and display it in an .aspx page. It's supposed to retrieve just one image, according to a unique key that's passed. However, when I view the page, nothing appears... just the Internet Explorer missing image placeholder. I've tried code from several diff tutorials, and can't seem to get it to work. I'm aware that some people think it's not a good idea to store images in a db, but I have to in this case, since the requirements for this project are that the images are stored in the database. I already know how to store references to file paths of images located in a server folder. I've just never done it this way... storing the whole images in the database. The table has 3 columns, one for the id, "FileType" stores the image type, and the "ImageBinary" is the image itself. If anyone can shine some light on why my code doesn't display anything, I'd greatly appreciated your help.

Hello Guys, I am trying to display image on a report. The image field is stored as a binary data in the database. I am using webservice to access the database and return datasets through which data on the report can be accessed. I saw that the xml returns binarystring value from the database. but when i try to display the image it does not show me anything except blank page. I checked the value of the binary data and it does not proceed with ox and tried appending 0x value but no luck. Guys please help me.

Hello,I'm having problems saving and then displaying binary data in sql server.I have a form that takes a file specified by the user and inserts this into sql server:protected void btnUploadFile_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (theFile.PostedFile != null) { if (theFile.PostedFile.ContentLength > 0) { byte[] docBuffer = new byte[theFile.PostedFile.ContentLength]; Response.Write(theFile.PostedFile.ContentType.ToString()); if (docBuffer.Length > 0) { // save to db DbAccess dbAccess = new DbAccess(); // my helper function for all db access etc try { dbAccess.BuildCommand("Incentives_SaveDocument"); dbAccess.Parameters.Add("@docImage", SqlDbType.Image).Value = docBuffer; dbAccess.ExecuteNonQuery(); } catch (Exception ex) { Response.Write(ex.ToString()); } } } } }Stored proc:ALTER PROCEDURE Incentives_SaveDocument @docImage imageASSET NOCOUNT ONINSERT INTO Table1 (theData) VALUES (@docImage) RETURNThis appears to work fine. I store the binary data in a image column and if I query the db it shows the row as <Binary>.The problem I have is with retrieving the data and saving it to a file. The file saves OK but when I open it is contains lots of "squares" that I suppose are the binary - it doesn't show the text.The code for retrieving/displaying the doc is:protected void btnView_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { DbAccess dbAccess = new DbAccess(); byte[] byteArray = null; try { dbAccess.BuildCommand("Incentives_RetrieveDocument"); dbAccess.Parameters.Add("@id", SqlDbType.Int).Value = 6; // id for the doc to return SqlDataReader reader1 = dbAccess.ReturnDataReader(); while (reader1.Read()) { if (reader1.HasRows) { byteArray = (byte[])reader1["theData"]; } } reader1.Close(); FileStream fs = new FileStream("file1", FileMode.CreateNew, FileAccess.Write); fs.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length); fs.Flush(); fs.Close(); FileInfo fileInfo = new FileInfo("file1"); HttpContext.Current.Response.Clear(); HttpContext.Current.Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileInfo.Name); HttpContext.Current.Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", fileInfo.Length.ToString()); HttpContext.Current.Response.ContentType = "application/msword"; HttpContext.Current.Response.WriteFile(fileInfo.FullName); HttpContext.Current.Response.End(); } catch (Exception ex) { Response.Write(ex.ToString()); } finally { dbAccess.CloseDbConnection(); }The stored proc:ALTER PROCEDURE Incentives_RetrieveDocument @id intASSET NOCOUNT ONSELECT * FROM Table1 WHERE id = @id RETURNI would be grateful for any advice on this - its the first time I've worked with BLOB data.ThanksSi
hi friends, i need a code for storing and receiving an image to/fro SQL SERVER 2000 (in C#). i had searched some sites, all are in VB for windows forms not for website. finally i got a code from some site. it is working for storing purpose. not working for receiving purpose. the code for receiving and displaying purpose is (in a fresh page) private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e){ // Put user code to initialize the page here MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream (); SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection (@"server=INDIAINDIA;database=iSense;uid=sa;pwd=india"); try { connection.Open (); SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand ("select Picture from Image", connection); byte[] image = (byte[]) command.ExecuteScalar (); stream.Write (image, 0, image.Length); Bitmap bitmap = new Bitmap (stream); Response.ContentType = "image/gif"; bitmap.Save (Response.OutputStream, ImageFormat.Gif); } finally { connection.Close (); stream.Close (); }}what s the problem is.........i'm getting an exception at Bitmap instantiation.(i.e Bitmap bitmap = new Bitmap (stream);)exception is "Parameter is not valid" what is the problem with that coding? was it correct? do u have any code for this in C#? if so, pls provide that......help me........pls.............
I am using the 3-tiered architecture design (presentation, business laws, and data acess layers). I am stuck on how to send the image the user selects in the upload file control to the BLL and then to the DAL because the DAL does all the inserts into the database. I would like to be able to check the file type in the BLL to make sure the file being uploaded is indeed a picture. Is there a way I can send the location of the file to the BLL, check the filetype, then upload the file and have the DAL insert the image into the database? I have seen examples where people use streams to upload the file directly from their presentation layer, but I would like to keep everything seperated in the three classes if possible. I also wasn't sure what variable type the image would be in the function in the BLL that receive the image from the PL. If there are any examples or tips anyone can give me that would be appreciated.
Hay Friend's Can u plese send me the way how to save image in sql server and display that images in datagrid or other control also like Image control or Image control Button?? Plese send the coding in C#. Thank's Amit

'Dim image As System.Drawing.Image
'sel2 = "select * from attach where att_desc = '" & DropDownList1.SelectedItem().Text & "' and doc_code = " & w_doc_code & " and subcode = " & w_doc_subcode & " and doc_num= " & w_doc_num & " "
I have learned lots of informative thing from your forums. I have little problem regarding “Display image from SQL Server on ASP.NET� I have done it and image display on my page from SQL Server. I have cleared you here I have adopt two different methods which are following for displaying picture.
but in both above methods I have faced little problem when image display on my page all other information can not display and I also want to display picture on my specific location on the page. My second question is can use any web control like “Image1� to display image from SQL Server where my pictures are stored.

In my asp.net application I have a local report with an image control in thedetail row of the table and the Value attribute set as="File://" & Fields!FQPhotoFileName.ValueThe first row in the table always shows the wrong image and it's always thesame wrong image. The problem is there even when I change the sort order orthe criteria for the underlying dataset. For example, I ran a small testthat populated the dataset with 2 rows and 2 images. When I sort by anycolumn (e.g. ID) in ascending ascending order the ID=1 row (the 1st row)shows the wrong image and the ID=2 row shows the correct image. When I rerunthe report sorting in descending order the ID=2 row (which is now the 1strow) shows the wrong image and the ID=1 shows the correct image.Any suggestions?
Hi, I have a website and i am uploading the gif image to the database. i have used varchar(500) as the datatype and i am saving the file in the webserver so the path to it c:intepub....a.gif
my upload table has the folliwing feilds UploadId Int Identity, Description, FileName, DiskPath varchar(500), weblocation varchar(500). I have a main sproc for the report where i am doing a inner join with other table to get the path of the gif..
So my question is how can i get a picture to show up on the report. . What kinda datatype the gif file should be stored in the database? If it is stored as a varchar how can i access it and what is best way to reference that particular.
I have inherited a VS 2005 database with a table that has a column of type IMAGE. I need to change the image for one of the rows in the table. I have the new image in a *.PNG file on my C: drive. What is the correct method for inserting this file into the IMAGE column.
I used to do this with classic asp but I'm not sure how to do it with .net.Basically I would take a table of Categories, Then I would loop through those. Within each loop I would call another stored procedure to get each item in that Category. I'll try to explain, Lets say category 2 has a player Reggie Bush and a player Drew Brees, and category 5 has Michael Vick, but the other categories have no items.Just for an example.. Category Table: ID Category1 Saints2 Falcons3 Bucaneers4 Chargers5 FalconsPlayer Table:ID CategoryID Player News Player Last Updated1 1 Reggie Bush Poetry in motion 9/21/20062 1 Drew Brees What shoulder injury? 9/18/20063 5 Michael Vick Break a leg, seriously. 9/20/2006 Basically I would need to display on a page:SaintsReggie BushPoetry in MotionFalconsMichael VickBreak a leg, seriously.So that the Drew Brees update doesnt display, only the Reggie Bush one, which is the latest.I have my stored procedures put together to do this. I just don't know how to loop through and display it on a page. Right now I have two datareaders in the code behind but ideally something like this, I would think the code would go on the page itself, around the html.
I need to show images in the report based on the urls from the db. The images are stored within a folder and not in the db (only the url in db). I couldnt find any way to give an url in the report and show the image. I'm stuck here , could you please help?
If String AB06 is then I need to get AB05; if it is AB11 I need to get AB10.
My select statement looks like this:
select 'AB'+(cast(substring(period,3,2) as int)-1) from table.
Result is AB6. But I want AB06 (ABzero6)
But when I do this, I'm getting AB6 instead of AB06. Can someone please tell me how to have '0' in front of 6? I guess when I cast it as integer, it is ignoring the leading 0.
I've managed to grouped by Category field nicely and added extra calculated column for handling to total plus as well as Total for each group plus added a new row for TOTAL in the TABLE and returned as follow:
Now I want to put another extra row underneath TOTAL for handling the calculated but the business rule is only for displaying from the first group for instance:
Code Snippet
TOTAL: $3032
Calculated Average per fruits: $1010.67 ($3032 / 3 UNITS).
3 UNITS is coming from Units for Apple and Banana.
I don't know if I can do this cause i did try to use
Code Snippet
=SUM(IIF(Fields!Category.value = "FRUITS", Fields!Units.Value, 0)) But it's successfully compiled but the report result error (#Error) on that field only. Any ideas?
I thought a simple like this can be handled quite easily instead of creating a new report view type in the the same dataset to handle this particular extra line.
I am trying to create a user permission system that is stored in a database. What is the best table structure for accomplishing this? How could I display the permissions in a grid? Currently I have a users table and a permissions table. I created a map between the two. However, I don't see how this allows me to display a grid. All my "columns" for permissions are actually rows from the permissions table. So ideally my grid would look something like this. User | P1 | P2 | P3 |A | T | F | T |B | T | T | T |Thanks for any help. I am relatively new to SQL so please explain gently.
Hi, I am a new VWD user and have been trying to set up a website that allows 1 user to upload images into to SQL Express database and then display them with a variety of other fields. I have searched the forums, several books and many ASP "training" websites to find out how to do this. Every website seems to teach how to display a list of employees or show photo gallery, but none explains how to upload an image, save it in the appropriate field(s) in the database, and then display it when requested in a Datagrid or Details View using VWD and SQL Express 2005 Can any one give me directions to a solution, or send me a simple solution to this? The best example of what I need is is a real estate listing, wherethe property for sale has 8 to 10 descriptive fields and 1 to 3 images that are displayed. Any help would be appreciated.

I have built an ADP for an internal project. The rpoblem I'm having is that one computer is not displaying reports. No matter who the user is it will not show the reports. I thought it might be a software issue/conflict, so I changed out the hardrive and started with a clean OS with only MS Office installed on it. I have also made sure that the users have access rights to SQL along with all sprocs used in the reports. But I'm still having the same problem. There are four other computers in the office that use the application and all work fine. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions I would be glad to hear them.
I basically want to display the single row that has the highest 'jobid' using a SP. I was playing with MAX(jobid) but getting errors about no group by, etc. Where do I begin with this?
SELECT Purchord, JobNo, Descr, customer, jobid FROM Jobs
I am hoping someone can help me on this. I have lost the ability to see tables in one database. I can see views and have full access rights on this database. I was trying to install OLAP Analysis on my PC and suddenly I lost this capability on one of the databases I access. Any thoughts? I have looked at everything I can find trying to fix this. Have re-installed and even cleared my user and re-added. It is something on my PC alone since it also affects anyone who signs on to my box.

I want to use a hosting service that has ssrs capability. I am using asp to generate a website that's data driven by sql 2005. I want to know if it's possible to display the reports I've created to anyone on the web site with the use of URLs to the report rdl. Can this be done on an asp page or does it have to be an aspx page (.net)? It seems like this would be a very common application of sql and report services. Thank you for any help you can give me.
