Well,
I'm not educated herein.
But I know it is a pain and somewhat inefficient to go storin' a bunch 'o
images in SQL Server... the filesystem is much more efficient here.
So...
P'raps you could extract the images to a directory and include, instead, a
link to the files in the SQL2K DB. Then, on a Response.Write, you could
stream a "<img href=""" & RS.filepath && "">" or something similar.
Not exactly what you were looking for, I know. But I'm out of your box, and,
as much as I sympathize with how impossible it is to break out sometimes
(even due to factors beyond our control), it can't hurt to look in from the
outside... usually. ;)
