Can files be stored in a table?

AK
Hi all,
I have a form which simulates a form collecting a person's info for
a job. The form has the field's like fname, lname, address etc. The
last field in the form is browse for resume and upload it. What I did
until now is, I am inserting all the data other than the resume into a
table and storing the resumes in a seperate directory. My questions
are:

1) Instead of storing the resumes in a seperate directory, can I store
them(files) in the same table as other fields?

2) If the above does'nt make sense, is there a way to form a link or
connection between these fields in the table and the resume file in
the directory, so that when I am searching for a particular
individual's details, I should be able to get everything including the
resume.

Thanks for your time!

regards,
avinnako

User wants to go this route instead of storing pointers in the DB and the documents outside.

The MS docs I would expect Access to differentiate and handle appropriately (i.e. .DOC and .XLS).. but how about ..PDF? and can I stash a .TXT document in the...

Hi. I'm using SQL Server 2005. I'd like to know if anyone has any reference on how to allow users to upload a file **onto a database**. In other words, a user can have several related files belonging to him. Also, I would need a syntax that allowed me to retrieve those files. I'm sure this is possible. Aside from that information, can anyone suggest whether this is the proper method? I know I can simply store the paths, but...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
