pretty know how to save it in database but having some problem converting the image to stream of bytes from PictureBox.
Thnx in Advance!

Save the Image to a MemoryStream.

define the parameter for those insert command so that the image get converted to the byte stream while entering into the database.

This works for me...

Save to byte array...

Code:

---

ImageConverter ic = new ImageConverter();
byte[] imageBuffer  = (byte[]) ic.ConvertTo(MyImageVariable, typeof(byte[]));

---

Call a method that takes the byte array for data update..

Code:

---

public bool SaveSignature(int userID, byte[] signature)
{
                        DBCommandWrapper wrapper = _db.GetStoredProcCommandWrapper("CODBA.usr_UpdateSignature");
                       
                        wrapper.AddInParameter("@UserID", DbType.Int32, buyerID);
                        wrapper.AddInParameter("@Signature", DbType.Binary, signature);

                        try
                        {
                                _db.ExecuteNonQuery(wrapper);
                                return true;
                        }
                        catch
                        {
                                throw;
                        }                       
}

---

Your stored procedure...

Code:

---

CREATE PROCEDURE  CODBA.usr_UpdateSignature

        (
                @UserID                        SMALLINT,
                @Signature                        IMAGE
        )

AS

etc...normal database update now.
