I would like to accomplish the following and would greatly appreciate any suggestions or advice on the most effective way to do so.

I need to store a a .pdf file into a database field. I'm not sure which field type would be ideal but have heard the TextCopy stored procedure is the way to accomplish this.

Beyond that, I need to then need to allow users to open the stored file in a browser in a similiar way that would occur if the filed were stored in the root directory on the web server.

Essentially, I need to store these files (avaliable to be opened by logged in users on our website)in a database rather that the root direcory of the web sever.


Thank you in advance and all suggestions appreciated.
