hi,
i would like to know how i can store and retrive images from SQL server.
I will be happy if i have been explained with some examples.
I have a web server running fine together with an sql 2005 db. I use asp as my web server programming language and want to be able to display images that are stored in the database.
My question of course is how do I put images, for example an image called "image1.gif" into the database?
After having stored the images in the db, I guess that the are displayed on my web pages the same way as all text information (by writing something like <%=rs("image_column")%> ).... Anyway first I need help with how to store imgs in the database...
I have a table called Image1 and i have stored the image in SQL server 2005 with a feiled called picture

I have a client who wants to be able to upload images to his website for his customers to access. It will probably max out at 100 images a month...so not a huge amount of data. I am using asp.net 2.0 and SQL Server 2005.
Does anyone have thoughts or opinions on why I should or should not take this approach?

Hi, for my photo album database I'm trying to decide whether to store the actual photos as images in the db or whether to leave them in file directories with just the path & filename in the db. As a beginner in this field I don't know how either of these options compare (e.g. in terms of performance, complexity, flexibility and maintainablity) so any advice on the pros and cons of each would be appreciated.

thank you very much
I am using MFC ODBC classes in my VC++ application for database accesss (on a SQL Server 2005 Database).
After opening a Recordset I have to use the CRecordset::GetFieldValue( LPCTSTR lpszName, CDBVariant& varValue, short nFieldType = DEFAULT_FIELD_TYPE ) method of the CRecordset object to obtain field values. The above method works fine with ODBC drivers for Jet but when I use ODBC for SQL Server it throws the following exception.
State:S1002,Native:0,Origin:[Microsoft][
ODBC SQL Server Driver] Invalid
Descriptor Index
I don't understand why the Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver is throwing this
exception.
Please help me!

If you serialize the image into a string ? If you want to save a byte array to a string, do you have to use a base64 encoded string ?

I bought the book €œData Mining with SQL Server 2005€?, but I can€™t find the solution to a problem I have.
I want to retrieve from C# the logistic regression Attribute Value (AV) Scores for the Logistic Regression Algorithm. I can see the Scores from the Microsoft Logistic Regression Viewer (the same of Neural Network Viewer), but I cannot retrieve them via DMX, OLEDB or similar.
Otherwise, is there a formula that I can use to compute that score from the coefficient, support, or probability values of the Attribute Value pair (I can read this values from DMX)?
I can access to them via DMX:
NODE_DISTRIBUTION -> SUPPORT and PROBABILITY ATTRIBUTE_VALUE...
with a query like
SELECT FLATTENED (SELECT ATTRIBUTE_NAME, ATTRIBUTE_VALUE FROM NODE_DISTRIBUTION WHERE VALUETYPE = ... ) FROM [MyModel].CONTENT WHERE NODE_TYPE ....
Thanks in advance

Hello All,

hi,
i would like to store images in my database and retirve them aswell. i have looked at examples on the net but i am finding it hard to follow and undertsand them, can anyone please give me adivse on how i can do this. i have alrady created my table in my database which has 4 fields pictureID, pictureContent, pictureType and pictureSize but i dont know where to go on from here. i want to do it in vb aswell.
please any help and advise would be much appreciated as i am stuck,
thank you
hi guys, are there any official or some sort of documents to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of storing image in the SQL's Image datatype field or storing the pointer to the image file? i have lots of static images (no more than 1MB each) that requires little updating and i need to retrieve them constantly. i am really struggled here on which method i should store the images: to store the images as Image datatype in SQL or save them as files and store the paths to the files. i would like to know, in my case, would there be any performance and efficient difference on using either method?
naturally, i'd think the 1st method seems like a better solution. it's easier to back up and it protects integrity. But at the same time, i am not sure if the constant inserting and retrieving of images will affect the performance? also, i want to share the images and may create a ticker thing (using JavaScript) to display the images on the web page randomly and it seems like the 2nd method is easier to program. if you were me, which method would you use and why? thanks!
Images, PDFs, word documents, etc..., will it affect the performance of my sql if I stored them in it as blob objects? Or it's better to use the filesystem instead and just store file paths in my sql?
thanks in advance
Can you store images in a database or in a table, or do you have to only store the image path/name in the database while the image is in another folder? IF anyone knows, please share with me. Thanks.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have recently designed and built my first database using SQL server 2005 express. I have included an image (BLOB) column in one of the database tables. This is a bad idea according to some experts, and some say it is OK!
I am currently carrying out a trial with just 3 pictures via Visual Basic 2005 express forms, and there is no problem so far as the images are displayed for each record. But I anticipate between 300 - 1000 images for the table, and this could pose real problems for SQL server 2005 express and Visual Basic 2005 express, I guess.
I have just been reading that the cost of storing large images in the database is too high! I have also read it's better to store images (BLOB) into the file system because it is cheaper to store them no matter how many there are.
But the question is how I can reference an image in this path: C:PictureProductGrocery 0052745.jpg in the database table, so that when I select a record Visual Basic 2005 forms the image is displayed accordingly, similar as when stored directly in the database table? Your help very much appreciated.
I€™ve inherited a project from one of the guys on our team who will be out sick for a while. He developed two for marshaling data between System.Drawing.Image and System.Byte(). He€™s storing the byte array data in a database image field.
I€™ve retrieved the byte array data from his database image fields and have successfully converted them to images using his ConvertByteArrayToImage method below. I have also converted and image to a byte array with his ConvertImageToByteArray method below and succfully stored the data in a database image field. However, when I retrieve the byte array data that I stored in the database the last line in his ConvertByteArrayToImage method throws an exception (Parameter is not valid). I€™ve not been able to find a working copy of his code that€™s storing the byte array data. Does anyone see anything I€™m overlooking?

I read that it is possible to store the image externally and simply store the path to it in a plain
varchar variable. Then this would leave the image in the original form, viewable by whatever
could view it normally without conversion. How would this be done.
Or if you do a WRITETEXT table.photo @ptrval 'd:empphoto24.jpg' where the path is the path
to the image? Does this save the image or just the english word that represent the link?
Thank you for any help!!!

Hey all,I'm working on a database which (I hope) will have photos in it. However, I'm having difficulty how to properly insert photos into an SQL database. I see that it has an 'image' data-type, but I don't know how to make proper use it.Given that the answer to this question could be quite lengthy, if someone could provide me a link to somewhere, or a book to pick up that could answer this answer, I would be most gratified. Thanks!
View 2 Replies View Relatedhi,
i am working on a website that will be storing millions of images. i have read various advantages/disadvantages of saving the images on sql vs. file system.
i would like to keep all the data in one location (sql server in this case), so what i had in mind is following:i am going to save the original image data on a sql server. now, the website user can view a (multiple) thumbnail version(s) of the original image and the orig. image itself, so instead of getting the original image from sql and resizing it everytime, i was going to create a file(s) on a sep. server with the resized image(s) that would be called instead (think of it as file-cache). this would reduce the load on the sql server drastically since all the thumbnails (and orig. image) would have the file version of themselfes and would be loaded from the separate server. this way i could have all my data on a sql server, have thumbnail images on an "image server" and everything should be fine with the exception of the increased disk space. Also, i would not have to worry about having 2 backups since i have all the data on sql and each image/thumbnail would be file-cached on it's first call. if the file-cache of the image is not available for whatever reason i would just load straight from the db.
i would appreciate any suggestions on this.
thanks :)
Hi There
I have not had much luck finding info in BOL.
I have a directory with many images, i need to load these images into sql server.We want to staore them in the database instead of the file server.
What is the best way to do this? TSQL (i am hoping), .NET code or maybe even SSIS ?
I have been reading what i can find in BOL basically all i know so far is that image data type will be no more in the future and i should use a varbinary(max) data type.
Basically i need a good link or something that can demonstrate how one can go about loading images into Sql Server 2005.
Thanx
Hi There
I have not had much luck finding info in BOL for tsql or SSIS that tells one how to load images on the file system into sql server 2005.
All i have really been able to find is that IMAGE data type will not be used in future and that one should use a varbinary(max) data type.
I am thinking of using a for each file loop in SSIS, but then how do i load the images (.tif) into a sql server database table ? Perhaps i need to use a sql task with the filepath , or an active x script.
Anyway if anyone knows how i can load images from the file system into sql server 2005, please let me know.
Thanx
Im new to SQL server express 2005 and im having issues loading images into my tables. can anyone show me how to achieve this?
