Hi guys
I thought this may be easy, but I am not sure it is now....
I have an internal website at our company and we have a "HelpDesk" application where our users can type out their requests and it is all saved to a SQL Server as are our replies etc. It works well thanks to all the help I've had from this site over the years.
Some of this work involves dealing with data in an excel file and our users have created the "HelpDesk" record but then have to send the link to the relevant file in a separate Email.
Now someone has suggested that the ability to browse for a File (a la Explorer) and create the link would be a great improvement, but I am not sure how to go about it. I am happy create a new field to store this link (or just put it in the body of the "HelpDesk" record i.e \\ServerName\D:\SomeFolder\ExcelFile.xls) but I am not sure how to create a "Browse For File" button.
Can this be done in ASP or do I need to fry my brain with JavaScript?
Thanks
Jonathan
