Image Column

[amal1973]

Please help..
I have to add a column in a table that will contain an Image…. This is the first time I face such a thing!! And actually this column will contain a hyper link to that image on a network !! I will be thankful for any suggestion and the exact process I should take
Thanks

If you want a hyperlink and not the actual image, just add a varchar field long enough to hold the link. I would think a varchar(100) would do it.

i think tht's right!
u should add a column of varchar2 type which will store the image path.
And then u can fetch this value through front end and open the image throuh the front end only
hope this will be of some help
