Usually you store images or actual whole text documents into LONG RAW or LONG datatypes. If you want to do anything with these in Forms then you would make an image item for images or you can simply use an OLE object to view the documents.
Give us a little more info.
Are you storing actual documents? Do you want to see this stuff through SQL+, Forms, Graphics?
