Upload File in ASP

[blink]

I would like users to be able to Locate a file on their HD, Upload it to a specific location on our server, and have a record of that upload recorded in a DB

Where do I start? Are there any tutorials for this? Can it be done soley with asp/html/java?

Hi,

I think it might be useful for you to get familiar with the FileSystemObject. The following link on the MSDN library tells you all about it: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/script56/html/jsFSOTutor.asp

Good luck

Thanks, I'll look at that
any other things that will be critical?

Nothing exceptional as far as I can see now. The only thing that you should be aware of is that the FileSystemObject allows people to upload files to your system; this, of course, requires proper security and virus scanning!

ok, I'll keep that in mind. It is on an intranet anyway, so security wont be as big of a problem.
