I want to read the image stored in Oracle Long datatype.
Number of images are stored in a remote Oracle database in a column with datatype long. I just need to retrieve those images and show them on my aspx page.
I could retrieve the image from database but when tried to caste it to byte array, it threw error that, string can not be converted to byte[]'.
Anybody have any suggestions on how to retrieve these images stored in long column in database.

Thanks.
