            dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
            while (dr.Read())
            {
                product[index] = dr["ProductName"].ToString();
                index++;
            }

0	an image is stored in a Bytes Field, so you need to retrieve the image and pass it to the Byte Array variable and directly bind the image control from a datasource property and it will show your images from the DB Thank you for posting at Dotnetfunda [Administrator] .Netlearner, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

0	Don't store whole Image in DB, just store its Name and at runtime retrieve it from its Path by its Name; Use Databind control like repeater for this,Don't use separate 5 Image control. OR Fast way if you want to Just Display then Use dynamic created HTML to display. set image Path in Databound event if you use databind control. for your lastly added 5 image query : SELECT TOP 5 imgID,imgName from Table Order By InsertionDate desc Ajay ajaypatelfromsanthal.blogspot.in .Netlearner, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

set image Path in Databound event if you use databind control.

for your lastly added 5 image query :

SELECT TOP 5 imgID,imgName from Table Order By InsertionDate desc
