Thank you William I guess I am stuck because I read that a byte array is used to send data to an Image field. So I was looking for a utility that would convert the image file into a byte file. I found code samples on the web but I was hoping to find a utility. Mostly I use excel files to load data into MS SQL. I mean I am clueless when I think about getting the image file into the table field. Janet
