Null values FileFields and validation

[markdt]

Hi All,

I have a problem validating FileFields.

Basically the code i have is:

msds=Uploader.Files("file1").FileName
prod=Uploader.Files("file2").FileName

I want what is in file1 and file2 in variables msds and prod.

Say i enter a valid file path for "file2" and leave file1 blank. When the form is posted it errors with "Object required: '[undefined]' "

I believe this is a Null value problem as it only happens when a file path is not entered into either file1 or file2.

I have tried many if statements to check to see if these have values but nothing seems to work. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Mark

Have you tried....

msds="" & Uploader.Files("file1").FileName

Or

If Not IsNull(Uploader.Files("file1").FileName) Then
msds=Uploader.Files("file1").FileName
End If

Im afraid ive tried both of the suggestions and it still says:

Object required: '[undefined]'

Any more ideas?

Thanks

did you register uploader object correctly.

the error does not look like is related to the NULL values...

Maybe....

If Not Uploader Is Nothing Then
msds=Uploader.Files("file1").FileName
End If

Im getting the same error again.

I have also tried:

If Not Uploader.Files("file2") Is Nothing Then
prod=Uploader.Files("file2").FileName
End If

The error refers to the first line of code. Even if i try to refer to file2 it says object required [undefined]. Seems like it doesnt exist at all if no file is specified.

Anymore ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks
