Images

I have a customer that has several thousand images (bmp) stored in a SQL 2000
database. Is there any way to copy the images programmatically to a folder so
they can be viewed using a photo program? Currently they use an Access form
to display the photos and, needless to say, I don't want to copy and paste
4,000 images."Paco" <paco6945@.yahooNoSpam.com> wrote in message

It's straightforward to do this using a .NET program. When you select rows
from the table you can retrieve the image column as a byte array and save
each byte array to a file.
