Graphics

I have created a table (SQL Server 2005) with 2 columns. One is a reference
(int) number and the other (image) for storing images. I will display the
graphics in a DetailsView on an asp.net web page, created with Visual Studio
2005.

How do I get the graphics into this column?

Or is it better to store them in a folder and reference them via a URL?

In SQL 2005 you have the option of storing binary values in a varbinary(max)
column, rather than the deprecated image data type.
