Hi, we need to see pictures stored as varbinary(max) in SQL Server 2005, I know you can't just query it, is there some tool/trick to get the actual image?
 
Hi Andreis,
Yes, there is a trick of sorts. You will have to write a .net app to view them. I wrote one a couple of years ago - proving that its quite simple :)

Google it - there are plenty of people out there willing to share the source code so you can adapt it for your environment.
