    I like to create one application for maintaining appraisal of all employees.

    I have field in the name "ID" in sql server table and for this ID i like to maintain a file which is having a letter like 'promotion letter', ' inter office memo' for the particular ID. I like to link the ID with the word and take print out. Can any one help me on this.

    Thanks

    Do you mean you have a Word document you want linked with a record?

    You can store the Word file in an image column in SQL Server, but you'd need to stream it out to your application and handle the printing. That's an application issue (loading Word document in memory) and not something you'll probably get an answer here to.

    You can also store a path in the database to the file. Then your application and read the path and open the file. Again, a programming issue, not a SQL Server one.
