In modern applications, it's common to store various types of data, including images, in databases. This article will guide you through the process of inserting images into a SQL database using C. We'll cover the necessary steps and provide code snippets to help you implement this functionality in your C applications.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following:

Microsoft SQL Server: Install and set up a SQL Server database.

Visual Studio: Use Visual Studio or any C development environment.

C Knowledge: Basic understanding of C programming.

Step 1: Database Setup

Firstly, create a table in your SQL database to store the images. Here's an example SQL script:
