David I have no experience with inserting Images into SQL tables. I believe
they support an OLE object data type. If so, then when you view the table
directly you should see the class name of the object, for example:
Generic Package or Picture
PaintBrush
MS Photo Editor etc.
Check both tables and see what's there. It's either a different class of

object for the two tables or it's the same class but a different version of
the Application that is serving as the OLE object server.
