Código para colocar imagens (objectos OLE) existentes numa base de dados -

ACCESS

Para mostrar o conteúdo na picturebox

SqlConnection cn = new SqlConnection(strCn);

cn.Open();

//Retrieve BLOB from database into DataSet.

SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT BLOBID, BLOBData FROM BLOBTest
ORDER BY BLOBID", cn);
SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
da.Fill(ds, "BLOBTest");
int c = ds.Tables["BLOBTest"].Rows.Count;

Byte[] byteBLOBData = new Byte[0];

byteBLOBData = (Byte[])(ds.Tables["BLOBTest"].Rows[c - 1]["BLOBData"]);
MemoryStream stmBLOBData = new MemoryStream(byteBLOBData);
pictureBox1.Image= Image.FromStream(stmBLOBData);

Para guardar as imagens na base dados

SqlConnection cn = new SqlConnection(strCn);

SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("INSERT INTO BLOBTest (BLOBData) VALUES
(@BLOBData)", cn);

//Save image from PictureBox into MemoryStream object.

MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
pictureBox1.Image.Save(ms, ImageFormat.Jpeg);

//Read from MemoryStream into Byte array.

Byte[] bytBLOBData = new Byte[ms.Length];
ms.Position = 0;
ms.Read(bytBLOBData, 0, Convert.ToInt32(ms.Length));
 //Create parameter for insert statement that contains image.
SqlParameter prm = new SqlParameter("@BLOBData", SqlDbType.VarBinary,
bytBLOBData.Length, ParameterDirection.Input, false, 0, 0,null,
DataRowVersion.Current, bytBLOBData);
cmd.Parameters.Add(prm);
cn.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
cn.Close();

Para guardar as imagens na base dados, a partir de imagens existentes no

disco

It works in my code-

CImageHandling objPhoto = new CImageHandling();

byte[] MyData = new byte[0];

MyData = (byte[])dt.Rows[0]["fldPhotoSignature"];

int ArraySize = new int();

ArraySize = MyData.GetUpperBound(0);

MyPic.Image = objPhoto.GetImageData(MyData);

---------------

public Image GetImageData(byte[] ImageByte)

System.IO.MemoryStream mst = new System.IO.MemoryStream(ImageByte, 0,

ImageByte.Length);

mst.Write(ImageByte, 0, ImageByte.Length);

System.Drawing.Image newImage;

newImage = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(mst);

return newImage;

IMPORTANTE
So far the only way I have been able to get these samples to work (and the one above)
is by excluding the OLE Object header information. 
            System.IO.MemoryStream mst = new System.IO.MemoryStream(ImageByte, 78,
ImageByte.Length-78);
            mst.Write(ImageByte, 78, ImageByte.Length-78);
