problem with the code for uploading files

[tkanvar]

Hi,

I used the following code to upload files to the folder "C:/uploads" using aspSmartUpload. And I get "1 file uploaded" message also. But the file is not actually uploaded in to the folder. Please help me to solve this problem. I use windows 98 and Personal Web Server.

thank you

Response.Write(intCount & &quot; file uploaded.&quot

Hi ...
you can try the SaveAs method of this object :
txtFileExt = mysmartupload.files(&quot;myfilename&quot.FileExt
txtFileName = mysmartupload.files(&quot;myfilename&quot.FileName
txtFileName = txtFileName & &quot;.&quot; & txtFileExt
mySmartUpload.files(&quot;myfilename&quot.saveas &quot;C:\uploads\&quot; & txtFileName
the &quot;myfilename&quot; is the name of the file input in your form.

Hi ehsant ,

For that I got the following error message.
Invalid Files Name 'myfilename' (Error 1205)

And I added the line
Dim myfilename

The same error message comes
I dont know what to do now. Please help me

And anyway the save mentioned in the first message should have worked, Am I right?
Then what is the problem with that code? any idea?
Please help me on that also.

thanks

Hi ...
As i said, the &quot;myfilename&quot; is the name of the file input in your form.
in your form, you have an input onject with a name which has a brows button.
when you push the button, you select a file from you computer and then submit your form which this asp will be called.
&quot;myfilename&quot; is the name of that object.
for example, you have this in your form name myasp1.asp:
<form name=&quot;something&quot; action=&quot;upload.asp&quot; method=&quot;post&quot;>
<input type=&quot;File&quot; name=&quot;myfilename&quot; size=&quot;53&quot; class=&quot;NormalInput&quot;>
</form>

then you have this code in your upload.asp :

Dim mySmartUpload

' Object creation
' ***************
Set mySmartUpload = Server.CreateObject(&quot;aspSmartUpload.SmartUpload&quot

mySmartUpload.Upload

txtFileExt = mysmartupload.files(&quot;myfilename&quot.FileExt
txtFileName = mysmartupload.files(&quot;myfilename&quot.FileName
txtFileName = txtFileName & &quot;.&quot; & txtFileExt
mySmartUpload.files(&quot;myfilename&quot.saveas &quot;C:\uploads\&quot; & txtFileName
that's it.
