Here is an update: It needed the brackets. Using UPDATE this will work. UPDATE Images300 SET Img300 = ['C:\Rtech\Coding02-11\Icons\Amb001.png'] WHERE ID300 = 1 BUT if I create a variable with the file name and its location: SET VAR vImgName = '[C:\Rtech\Coding02-11\Icons\Amb001.png]' THEN UPDATE Images300 SET Img300 = .vImgName WHERE ID300 = 1 -ERROR- Column Img300 must be a valid VARBIT. ( 122) Of course column Img300 is a valid VARBIT. Any help would be appreciated
