Question : Pictures to Database Records

Hello Everyone,
I would like your input on a database I am working on... I've been asked to include a picture of the item along with every record entered in the database. The image can be extracted from an application and saved as a .jpg file. I know all of you might probably suggest I link the picture to the record and store the picture on a folder so that the database will not be cluttered with oversize picture files. Does anyone of you have a way I can use to import a picture associated to a record and link it to that specific record? any additional best practices, examples or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Answer : Pictures to Database Records

http://www.ammara.com   >>> DBPix ...

You might want to consider this ... and I can totally vouch for this program.  

It does all the work for you. Examples show how to add a simple 'control' panel to Load, Save, Zoom In/Out, Size To Fit and much more.  AND ... virtually eliminates BLOAT associated with storing images in an Access MDB. I have 3 clients who sell commercial run-time products that use DBPix.

Note. I have no connection with DBPix ... except I have used it many times ...
