There is no code. I just place a pic box contorl and binde its image
property to the photo cloumn in Northwind db. The error message reads
"could not format to the desired type". VB.NET imports binary to
system.binary, and to display it correctly, it needs to be in the
system.drawing.imaging namespace, I think.
