Sorry, no link, but I think you want to be looking at the <cfimage...>
and|or the <cfcontent...> tags. One or both of these tags should allow
you to deliver the image from the database to the client.

You are doing this in a bit of an unusual, but not unheard of way. Most
people just store the image file in a handy directory accessible to the
web server and then store the name|URL to this image as text in the
database.

But it is definitly possible to server up binary image data as well.
Though I have never heard of this in conjunction with MS Access and 'OLE
objects'. I usually hear this discussed in relation to more enterprise
database management systems and BLOB [Binary Large OBjects] data fields.
