I don't understand why something that should be so simple is not. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to display a jpeg image in an access database on an ASP. I know that people must be doing it, but how? They are actually stored as OLE objects in the database. I keep seeing some people suggesting storing a link to an image in the database and storing the Images on the server. My question to this would be, how can a user add an image to the database?
 
Use <input type=&quot;file&quot;...> and let them select a file from their machine and upload the file on submit of the form (containing the input). You choose the path to save the file on the server, so you can save the link in your database.
