I've just finished a series of experiments, which did just this.
I put them at http://www.xcom.dk/oss/ and you might get them to work.
They should show how to read a file (from filesystem or browser) into
the database, how to update and how to fetch it from the database again.
I'll see if I can clean the during the next few days (add comments,
better variable names, etc.) so they'll be easier to understand :-)
