| Although it is possible, it is not advisable to store BLOB (pictures, mp3 etc) data in the database. Instead you can store these files on the local file system and store only the paths inside the database.Harsh AthalyeIndia."The IMPOSSIBLE is often UNTRIED" |

| mp3 files have metadata associated with them such as artist name, album, song title, duration etc.....Do you know a way to retrieve all this information, i am creating a juke box and the search will use this criteria to look for songs. |
