I made this application only to learn how to use databases. I was looking for an easy way to add pictures to an access database but couldnt find it so this I came up with an unconventional way to store the files. The app first saves the picture to a tempfile to disk to get the pictures binary data and then opens it again and adds it to a memo field.. I did this because I wanted the option to paste pictures into my app... I'm not sure but I think there is somekind of limitations with this type of field, although I haven't noticed any problems. The search function might have it's glitches, I'm not quite sure..
You might want to add reference to the MS DAO 3.6 lib to get it to work...
And finally, it would be nice with comments and votes..
