Ok, I read the book, but I still don't really know how should this be done.
What I have is this table:

db.define_table('files',
                Field('original_filename', 'string', required = True,notnull 
= True),
                Field('uploaded_file', 'upload', uploadfield = 
'uploaded_data', required = True, notnull = True, requires = IS_NOT_EMPTY
()),
                Field('uploaded_data', 'blob', notnull = True),
                Field('created_on', 'datetime', notnull = True))

and this code:

db.files.insert(original_filename = upload.filename,
                uploaded_file = db.files.uploaded_file.store(upload.file,upload
.filename),
                created_on = datetime.today())

But this doesn't work because uploaded_data field is NULL. Shouldn't 
store() take care of that field?
Or do I need to put file content there manually?
Thanks in advance.
