Saving and retrieving image in SQL database from C# problem
- by Mobin
I used this code for inserting records in a person table in my DB
System.IO.MemoryStream ms = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
Image img = Image_Box.Image;
img.Save(ms, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp);
this.personTableAdapter1.Insert(NIC_Box.Text.Trim(), Application_Box.Text.Trim(), Name_Box.Text.Trim(), Father_Name_Box.Text.Trim(), DOB_TimePicker.Value.Date, Address_Box.Text.Trim(), City_Box.Text.Trim(), Country_Box.Text.Trim(), ms.GetBuffer());
but when i retrieve this with this code
byte[] image = (byte[])Person_On_Application.Rows[0][8];
MemoryStream Stream = new MemoryStream();
Stream.Write(image, 0, image.Length);
Bitmap Display_Picture = new Bitmap(Stream);
Image_Box.Image = Display_Picture;
it works perfectly fine but if i update this with my own generated Query like
System.IO.MemoryStream ms = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
Image img = Image_Box.Image;
img.Save(ms, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp);
Query = "UPDATE Person SET Person_Image ='"+ms.GetBuffer()+"' WHERE (Person_NIC = '"+NIC_Box.Text.Trim()+"')";
the next time i use the same code for retrieving the image and displaying it as used above . Program throws an exception
