how do i get long text files in a database

[fastfirebird]

I am creating a database that will store articles from a newspaper. I would like to know what the best way to go about doing this would be.

Thank you

Hi,
Use a memo field. This is the largest field available - they hold up to 64k.

Another way is to hold each article in a txt file or a word doc and store the network path in your database. When you want to view an article you shell out to the file.
