I'm not sure about it,cause I don't know about oracle. You can first read file and put the string into your database,then if u want to reuse it ,read the string from database and put the string into a file with .jpg or .bmp extention. Hope it helps:) Mazy "So,so you think you can tell, Heaven from Hell, Blue skies from pain,... How I wish,how I wish you were here."
