i/p: 1000+ image files
o/p: should be displayed in an vb6 environment in an pic box.....I would recommend you storing full path to picture file and not file itself then get path from a database and load picture from file into a picture box.
It is extremely slow and complicated to do it on the database side. You should be able to convert picture file into a binary stream to store it on the database and then be able to decode this binary stream back to picture.
Good Luck.
