Problem in saving image to database from picturebox. VB.Net 2008. Framework 3.5.

[priyamtheone]

Hi there,
I have a form containing a listbox showing a list of image names. It's bound
to the database table. When an image name is clicked it shows the image and
imagename in a picturebox and textbox respectively. When no image is selected
in the listbox, a new record can be inserted by browsing a new image in the
picturebox by an openfiledialog, writing the imagename in the textbox and
pressing the OK button. When an image is already selected, the record can be
updated by pressing the same OK button. The data is saved into MSSQL Server
2005. Corresponding table fields are Keycode int autono,
logoname nvarchar(50), logo image.
Now the problem, when I insert a new data with an image everything goes fine
but whenever I try to update an existing data with an image it throws an
exception- 'A generic error occurred in GDI+.' at the following line-
'pic.Image.Save (ms, pic.Image.RawFo rmat)'. Surprisingly when I update an
existing data without any image in the picturebox no exception is generated.
I have crossed checked it and seems that the problem is just at one point-
'Updating the image from the picturebox'.
I'm almost done all throughout but stuck to this particular point. Please help. Regards.

My code to insert/update the data by OK button and to populate it by listbox
doubleclick follows:

Private ms As MemoryStream
Private arrImage() As Byte
Private conn As SqlConnection
Private cmd As SqlCommand

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
	'Method to bind listbox.
	BindListBox(lst, "Select Keycode,LogoName from tbltest", "Logoname", "keycode")
        Tag = "Insert"
End Sub

Private Sub lst_DoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles lst.DoubleClick
        Dim dr As SqlDataReader

        dr = CreateReader("Select LogoName,logo from tblTest where keycode=" & lst.SelectedValue)
        If dr.Read Then
            txtLogoName.Text = vbNullString & dr("Logoname")
            If Not IsDBNull(dr("Logo")) Then
                arrImage = CType(dr("Logo"), Byte())
                ms = New MemoryStream(arrImage)
                pic.Image = Image.FromStream(ms)
                ms.Close()
            Else
                pic.Image = Nothing
                pic.Invalidate()
            End If
            Tag = "Update"
        End If
        dr.Close()
        closeconnection()
        arrImage = Nothing
        ms = Nothing
End Sub

Private Sub btnOk_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnOk.Click
        Dim com As SqlCommand
        Dim strSql As String

        If Tag = "Insert" Then
            strSql = "Insert into tbltest (logoname,logo) values ('" & Trim(txtLogoName.Text) & "',@Logo)"
        Else
            strSql = "Update tbltest set logoname='" & Trim(txtLogoName.Text) & "',Logo=@Logo Where keycode=" & lst.SelectedValue
        End If

        com = CreateCommand(strSql)
        com.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@Logo", SqlDbType.Image))
        If Not pic.Image Is Nothing Then
            ms = New MemoryStream()
            pic.Image.Save(ms, pic.Image.RawFormat)
            arrImage = ms.GetBuffer
            ms.Close()
            com.Parameters("@Logo").Value = arrImage
        Else
            com.Parameters("@Logo").Value = DBNull.Value
        End If

        If com.ExecuteNonQuery = 1 Then
            closeconnection()
            BindListBox(lst, "Select Keycode,LogoName from tbltest", "Logoname", "keycode")
            pic.Image = Nothing
            pic.Invalidate()
            txtLogoName.Clear()
            Tag = "Insert"
