i have a database table in MS-ACCESS format (MDB) containing structure as
Form_No Int
Picture OLE OBJECT
when i import this table in MySQL using navicat, then the PICTURE field converts to BLOB and the field has no images(IMAGES ARE LOST). what to do ?
OLE objects are tricky beasts – it is not exactly trivial to convert them into pictures.
This article is an example of C# program (about 5KB) that can convert OLE object to few supported formats (JPEG, BMP, PDF, WORD).
You should be able to adapt it to your needs. I would think it will be easier to create new BLOB picture column in MS Access table first, convert it to real JPEG (not OLE!) using C#, and only then export it to MySQL.
