Not clear what you want to do. Modify your question and put enough details.

what sql server do you use?

Please add more details. Especially what you mean by datatype. I'm inclined to say you meant to say SQL Server, but you didn't. So please improve your question and add the appropriate tags.

Thanks for your cooperation!

I think he means some type of blob or store a url in a table that points to an image loaction on a server....that are about his options....
