Any help with store a file in a DB ?

I use VB .NET 2003 and I want to store into a binary field of a SqlServer
2003 table a File that I got on my hard disk.

Does anyone know how can I do that ?

I also use an OpenFileDialog component to get the file name and the path.
I got already a connection to my DB

and the only problem is that I don't know how to store the file into the
table ?
with the help of a variable first ? and then to insert it into the table in
a binary field ?

Sorry the articles are in C#. The concepts are the same, and the HTML parts
don't change at all.

Hope this helps,

I plan to have many images on my web application, up to as many as 5000. Not to mention the...
