I need to Insert a Microsoft Paint object (a bmp file) into an OLE bound object field as a Bitmap Image. I found how to copy the field to a bmp file, but cannot find anything on bringing it back into the field to be modified in Paint. This must be done in code.

I know you should not store pictures in a table, but this is only 1 field used to create or modify a bmp then saved off as a bmp file.
 
There's a pretty good KB about using BLOBs:
