Search the forum but could not find anything as unique as this. Here's the problem, I have a web form to input and save data to an Access 2000 database (built using Dreamweaver 8.0). My customer wants to be able to save Doc & PDF files to the db record as well. What I really want to be able to do is to open up a common dialog box to search for the file and save to a directory on the web site and then save the link to the file to the db record. I do not want to save the files to the db because I believe Access 2000 has a limited storage capacity. I also want to be able to display the active link for the user to click on and download or view the file saved in the directory on the web. SQL is not an option and I'm stuck with Access 2000 only. I'm new at this so I'll need step by step instructions! Thanks for any help that I can get!

Your ISP will need to support uploading from client applications to allow clients to upload files to a folder on the server.
This is quite a tall order - you will need to talk to them about how they would allow you to use this functionality from your code.
