List pgsql-sql
Hi to all...
I need to create a db that contain link to some pdf files..
At the moment these are simple links (to the files that are stored into
the file system) storing paths into a column of a dbf table...

I need to manage this data considering that the db I'm going to create
will be moved in some months to another server... 
so I think that the link to the files positions into the file system
isn't a valid solution...

can you suggest me a better way to manage this pdf data?? 
Each pdf is quite small (<100k)

should I use BLOB?

many thanks

Ivan
