There is the SaveBitmap function, that saves the contents of a PictureBox to a .bmp file - which is a binary format.
Other than this, you have to write your own routine.

Try this snippet

Private Sub SaveBMP(ByVal strImage As String)
    Picture = Clipboard.GetData(vbCFBitmap)
    SavePicture Picture, strImage
End Sub

I have taken the feild as Image(equivalent to BLOB).
1st i am storing the image in binary file then by reading that file i am inserting it it a byte array.. but its not working properly...as we dont know what will the size of binary string.. how will i store the binary string in Database using Recordset. I found Getchunk method but cant code it properly.. do u have a code for this??
