hi, for storing in oracle database u have to use BLOB datatype. The file has to be inserted in binary fashion for which APIs are there in java. Initially data has to be entered and for the blob field write EMPTY_BLOB() like this
insert into sb_emp values('1113','','','','','','','','','','','','',EMPTY_BLOB()); . and then update that field like this. FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file); PreparedStatement pstmt = dbCon.prepareStatement("update sb_emp set Eimage=? where empid=?");// (insert into sb_emp values('1111','','','','','','','','','','','','',EMPTY_BLOB())";//("update sb_emp set Eimage=? where empid=?"); pstmt.setBinaryStream(1,fis,(int)file.length()); pstmt.setInt(2,1113); pstmt.executeUpdate(); pstmt.close(); fis.close(); Regards, Vikramjit Singh, Systems Engineer, GTL Ltd.
