I don't know if this might suit your needs, but we are looking at building an
image database using Superbase 4 from Precision Software as the display and
database engine.  It runs under MS-Windows 3.0 and knows about some common
image formats (not all).  It also appears to be a nice database application
development environment.  We plan to store the large bulk of image data on
a Unix box, and use a PC-NFS clone to make it accessible as DOS drives on the
PC.  For more info on Superbase call Precision Software at (800) 562-9909, or
(214) 929-4888.  I have no connection with them, and will be using their
software for prototyping over the next few months.  Ask me again in June to
see how well I like it...
