If you mean a file as in an image or other binary data, you need to use a BLOB
field.

Subject: howto store files in mysql
I need to store a file as mysql record. I assume I use the text variable
but have no idea how to read the file into the mysql record.
Please note I am not reading a file to a table - so not the LOAD DATA
INFILE function but a means of storeing the contents of a file as a
record. anyone know how to do that or the url of the manuel which
explains it.
thanks
