We need to be able to bring up a SaveAs dialog box when a user clicks Upload from within a datalist to upload a report. This report and its location need to be saved in a SQL Server database. An option must exist whereby another user can login and download/view the saved report.<br />
<br />
Is there a way to upload and download files in ASP.NET / VB.NET (Not C#).<br />
<br />
I have tried,<br />
<br />
&lt;input id=&quot;txtFile&quot; type=&quot;file&quot; name=&quot;txtFile&quot; runat=&quot;server&quot;&gt;<br />
&lt;br /&gt;<br />
&lt;asp:button id=&quot;btUpload&quot; runat=&quot;server&quot; text=&quot;submit&quot;&gt;&lt;/asp:button<wbr />&gt;<br />
&lt;/form&gt;<br />
<br />
&nbsp;way but it seems that the Upload button does not fire the ItemCommand when embedded in a datalist. Can someone please provide code or a way to do this?<br />
<br />
Many Thanks.....

ASP.Net - Uploading and Downloading files from within a Datalist

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft’s first server-side engine for dynamic web pages. ASP’s support of the Component Object Model (COM) enables it to access and use compiled libraries such as DLLs. It has been superseded by ASP.NET, but will be supported by Internet Information Services (IIS) through at least 2022.
