Form Field Upload to Database

G

Guest

Hello
I know that frontpage will not allow my form users to upload a gif or jpg with the other form fields to be saved to database.
The ultimate goal would be to have all form fields including "form field file upload" saved to database and displayed in my results region page.
Do you know of a way i cant achieve this goal
thank
robert

Check with your host to see if they offer access to an ASP Upload component or what one they are
willing to install and support.

We do support ASPUpload 3.0 with is a commercial ASP component installed on all servers that will allow the uplaod of images from a form to your web site. We are not aware of the ability to actually save the image in the database itself but you could save the path to the image file in a Access database field in a table. The folder where you will be uploading the images will need Read/Write Access.

For a code reference and further information on the ASPUpload component you can visit the vendors web site at http://www.aspupload.com

If your host has this installed, then you do not need to purchase anything. The ASPUpload site
provides example code for using the component in your pages.

You will have to write your custom ASP code to use this component to upload and then update the
database, you can not do and use the FP database wizard.

Does this mean that i can add the form field "file Upload" to my form and save it to database? How would i save the path to the image file in a Access database field in a table??
That's the million dollar questio

Yes, but you will need to hand write all of the code used in your application, in other words, you
can't mixed it with any of the FP generated database code.

if you visited the site you'd know a 30 day evaluation version is available for
download, otherwise is it a "purchase" product.

But he doesn't need it, as the host already has it installed.
