I have used opendialog tool with a text box(to display path F:/Pictures/Tree.jpg) and a button(Open Folder)to open an image, and when i click on Submit button the image should move to a folder in D drive (D:/Image) and the new location(D:/Image/Tree.jpg) should be stored in database.Please help

Then instead of using SaveFileDialog u can hard code the path u want to save and u need write a method or function whcih saves the pic into database. Use image datatype to save into DB
