Create a table with a Memo field in it called Letter, and then use this
code:

with MyDBISAMTable do
   begin
   Append;
   TMemoField(FieldByName('Letter')).LoadFromFile('c:\myletters\myletter.doc');
   Post;
   end;

To load the letter again, use this:

with MyDBISAMTable do
   begin
   TMemoField(FieldByName('Letter')).SaveToFile('c:\myletters\myletter.doc');
   { Launch MS Word, etc. here and open the letter using ShellExecute,
etc. }
   end;
