Saving files to databases, is somewhat troublesome as it differs from platform to platform, firslty are you useing a relations database/object relational or object oriented (as only the second two will work).
However there is a simpler way than faffing about with the database, why not just plonk the file in some folder somewhere nicley out the way, then save a path to the file in the database ona normal text field, this makes it quite simple.
