Storing images in dataset
Hi
My project requirement is I want to add images in a temporary variable and bind it to the grid and then after that I want to store the image in a folder.
Can you suggest me some option to where I can store the images temporarily.

Read the image using a filestream and store it as a byte array.

Hi
Don't you think this will create an overhead to convert the file into stream and then back to the original one

What you name "the file" is stored into the DB as a binary stream, or let say an array of byte. When binding from a DB from a program you always work with a copy, aren't you ? So now you can have several reference on the same data, I don't see a lot of overhead here.
