How should I make a database with pictures?

I want to make a database with names and pictures of potential employees. The employees will be grouped by profession. (Cook, Gardener, Nanny, Driver, etc.) Once a potential employer clicks on the picture it will bring up the employee's application and certifications. What program should I use? I have Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise. Thanks in advance for your help.

    I suggest you use a proper Relational Database Management System (RDBMS). In simpler words, use a database software like: Microsoft Access, PostgreSQL, MySQL, or Oracle.

    You can then store all the information you want about your employees in a table. As for the images, one way to do it is store all the pics you want in a folder on the hard disk, and just save the path of each image in the database.

    Moreover, you might need some web application programming (PHP or Java Servlets and JSPs).
