AFAIK you need an OLE object field for that

you are right -- this is the wrong form.

could probably also save the pictures as a blob, but changing the original picture won't change the copy in the database like OLE objects do.

yes, make it OLE. Its a bit of a hack and it only works well with bitmaps but its the only decent way.
