Storing Images into a Database using VB.NET
In order to provide your application with cool pictures you can employ two techniques (at least). One of them is that you can save the pictures in a folder and store the path to each one in a database or configuration file. The other one is to store the entire file into a database, along with its file name.

Please help. You mentioned above that there is another way of Storing Images into a Database using VB.NET , the one where you have to save the images in a folder then store the path to each one in a data base. Can you please show me how to do that. I really need it. Thanks!
