• Visual Basic Photo Matching Database

  User selects a picture and querys the database for a match. How do I write the Code for this SELECT id, image, description FROM pictures [database] WHERE image EQUALS picturebox1.image I am concerned that the "image" format stored in the db will not match  picturebox1.image and that I probably will have to convert picturebox1 into a binary array to match the format already in the database.  Furthermore, I might have to compare byte for byte for both image.  This would be too slow. I need the best (speed) way to match an picturebox with a stored image in the database.  Thanks. ...Show All
