[dba-SQLServer] Upload documents with MSAccess FE

I am trying to develop a system where Adobe pdf documents are stored in
a SQL server database.  The method I am using to "store" the files is an
MSAccess front end.  I have an unbound form with an Object Frame and a
few other text boxes for extraneous information.  I try to place the pdf
document in the object frame with the menu command Insert/Object and
then run an SQL script to append the object (and other data fields) to
the destination table in the SQL database.  
 
The trouble I am having is that the field in the destination table is
"Image(16)".  Every object I append to the table in the method described
above fills the entire memory space allotted for that field.  Thus a
20Kb pdf file will become a 5+ Mb object once in the field.  
 
I don't need to know the mechanics of why this is happening.  I just was
wondering if there were others who have experienced this (or similar)
issue and what can I do to fix it.
 
Thanks in advance for you assistance.
 
Should I cross post this to AccessD list?
