For extracting data from images you need to have a OCR Tool. These tools are responsible of performing OCR.

The tools which can do the trick are:
1. Kodak Imaging
2. MODI (Microsoft Office Document Imaging MS Office 2007- deprecated in MS Office 2010)

The above mentioned tools extract text from images and create text files, which can be uploaded to database.
A simple google search can bring you a lot of ocr tools.

Hope this will help you a little.
