                       EM_ad.Text = dr["EmailAddress"].ToString();
                       Address.Text = dr["Address"].ToString();
                       suite.Text = dr["Suit/Unit"].ToString();
                       Post.Text = dr["PostalCode"].ToString();
                       City.Text = dr["City"].ToString();
                       provi.Text = dr["Province"].ToString();
                       Country.Text = dr["Country"].ToString();
                       gender_M.Text = dr["Gender"].ToString();
                       gender_F.Text = dr["Gender"].ToString();

**I think this code section is gives me No parameter error**
                       byte[] arr = (byte[])dr["Photo"];
   
                       if (arr.Length > 0)
                       {
                           MemoryStream mem = new MemoryStream(arr);
                           pictureBox1.Image = Image.FromStream(mem);
                       }

                   }
                   dr.Close();
                   Connection.Close();

What I have tried:

Seriously? You couldn't type in 4 or 5 little words into your posting? And it's not "no parameter", it's "parameter is invalid". You get to use your debugger and find out which parameter is incorrect, then you can fix it.

I have used service for getting the Image Data from Dataset, you could get it from Access Query to Dataset and follow the same procedure as did below

DataSet imageds = ServiceImageClient.GetImageData(serviceimagedata);
dataGridView2.DataSource = imageds.Tables[0];

foreach (DataGridViewRow row in dataGridView2.Rows)
{
if (row.Cells["Image_Id"].Value != null)
{
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream((byte[])row.Cells["Image"].Value);
System.Drawing.Image Image1 = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(ms);
string sMainImagePath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) + "\\foldername";
Image1.Save(sMainImagePath + "\\" + row.Cells["Image_Id"].Value + ".Bmp");
}
}
