I am trying to create a site to upload pdf files and attach them to
different records. Each record contains a truck and pdf files have the
maintenance invoices.so when I go in the detail view of the record I want to
be able to view the pdf file. can you help?

It is pretty simple.
Just treat your PDFs to upload the same as you would an image file for upload using the upload control
For display, just popup a new windoe to show the PDF.

It connectsn to the database just like any iother control
In the properties box select the connection, database & field you want the filename to be put into.

I still need to know what mySQL side. it doesn't look like it is uploading
the file to the field I want it to. I am trying to upload invoices for
seperate maintenance records. I created the field type as mediumblob. Also
How would I call the file to view the pdf file to view ? I tried it as image
still no luck.

Omer - many of your questions will be answerred by doing one or more of the tutorials. You will have a better understanding of what you are doing that way.

Hi
Having the PDF as an image will not display the PDF. The PDF file has to be the target of a link url.
eg: http://yourdomain.com/some.pdf
Use target="_blank" is you want it to display as a new window.
Here is an example of how those links would look. Click on the demo links.

All you gotta do is upload them with the file upload component.

Note:
If security of your uploaded PDFs is an issue, you should consider writing a page that will server up the PDFs by an ID number so the link would look like this
http:://yourdomain.com/pdsserver.php?ID=xxx
This way users would not know the directory of PDF file name
