| Hey friends, I want to create a database for images with data worth 21GB of images and I anticipate more to come. I am using HeidiSQL as a frontend to create the database. Some how, it is not allowing me to insert images higher than 1GB in the database. Is it not possible or a limitation of the software? |

| Keep your images in a folder and save the path in the DB, the insert you images in your presentation layer. Read up on BLOB many such examples in this forum |

Its not a good idea to store images in your DB. Seehttp://www.dbazine.com/sql/sql-articles/larsen13And plenty other examples in this forum and google.Good luck |
