You got it. Right there. What do you want to do with it? --- b { font-weight: normal; }

it doesn't work if i do: myImage = (Image)myDataSet.Tables[0].Rows[i]["Image"];

You can read data from a DataSet simply by using the following code: byte[] _Image = (byte[])myDataSet.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Image"]; MemoryStream ms=new MemoryStream(_Image); Image image=Image.FromStream(ms); Now you have your image reconstructed if you have stored it as binary data. Akif

i've do it but i get error, maybe becouse i have set the image within Microsoft Access instead in my c#application. Could be it the cause? Just another question: if i set another kind of file as a word file or a .xls how can know what kind the file is it?
