If you upload the text file to the server, why do you want to store it also in the db? You could as well upload the file and store the filename in the db.

That way you have no problem in case of a special file, like a Word document ot other strange docs.

Ive stored the file name in database. Bt where can i view the files on the server for later use. I need them for retrieval.

You download and open them.
