        OpenFileDialog1.Title = "Get Image"
        With OpenFileDialog1
            .Filter = "All Files|*.*|Bitmaps|*.bmp|GIFs|*.gif|JPEGs|*.jpg"
            .FilterIndex = 4
        End With
        If OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then

            PictureBox1.Image = Image.FromFile(OpenFileDialog1.FileName)
            PictureBox1.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.StretchImage
            PictureBox1.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.None
        End If

    End Sub

    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Try
            Dim txt1 As String = TextBox1.Text
            Dim txt2 As String = TextBox2.Text
            Dim flag As Integer
            Dim ms As New MemoryStream
            PictureBox1.Image.Save(ms, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg)
            Dim bytes() As Byte = ms.ToArray
            Dim img As String = Convert.ToBase64String(bytes)
            Dim con As New OleDb.OleDbConnection("provider=sqloledb; server=MICROSOF-E56695\SQLEXPRESS; database=mahaveer; userid=; password=;Trusted_Connection=yes;")
            con.Open()
            Dim cmd As New OleDb.OleDbCommand("insert CheckStaff values('" + txt1 + "','" + txt2 + "','" + img + "')", con)
            flag = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery
            If flag = 1 Then
                MsgBox("Saved..........")
            End If
