Storing images in Access

J

James

I want to store (hundreds of)images/pictures with
hyperlinks attached in Access. I then need to be able to
import these images and hyperlinks to a webpage. Is this
possible?

Hi James,

In general it's simplest not to store images in Access but to leave them
in separate files, storing just the names and locations in the database.

Arvin Meyer's PictureMgr sample database here
http://www.datastrat.com/DataStrat2.html
shows the basic techniques for managing images as external
files.

I don't quite understand what you mean, however, by "images/pictures
with hyperlinks attached". If you want hyperlinks that you can click on
to display the pictures, just store their locations in Access Hyperlink
fields.
