What about WHERE clause? How is it affecting your implementation? WHERE clause will just filter few images.

I dont get what you want very clear do you want for example when you click on a record the image display in the image control or you want all the images to appear in images control beside the records?

Dear Friend,

In order to show the images from the database you can't put them into a dataset object as that works in disconnected mode but for a image data type (which is is a stream); you have to use the datareader object and then converting the byte form into image you can then bind it to your image control.

Solution 1

Save image in database var binary(max) field and then retrieve that from database and save on server and bind the specific path to grid view
or save image path to database and bind that image path directly
