Hi again all

I am not sure if this can be done via the web but what I want to do is provide a BROWSE button people can use to select a file, the field is then populated with the full directory path to that file - is this possible?

Or is it possible for a user to select a file and then have it saved to a location on the web server and then the field is populated with the URL of the document - this would be much better.

Thanks

Greg,

File uploads can not be done directly through FMP. They need to be handled by another web-server. However, it is not impossible to then update a record with the URL for that file.

I have an application where users upload files; this is done with ASP and VBScript. I then store the relevent details in a persistent recordset. My next trick is to store those details in a FMP database. I will be working on that within the next few weeks.

I can keep you updated on my progress if you wish.

All the best.

Garry, please keep me also on your list for this solution.

Maybe we will purchase that from you, or we can trade in our Security Filter.

Sounds good.

Yes please keep me updated - however I don't use ASP - any other ideas?
