It's line 23: If (ftxt.HasFile) Then

You've declared ftxt, but not assigned an object to it with the method HasFile.

How do i assign an object to the hasfile? Sorry confused, as this is my first attempt at aspx.vb

I thought it would be assigned under line 16 & 17?

do I split it out into two subs

SaveFile(FileUpload1.PostedFile) within Button1_Click?

then

Sub SaveFile(ByVal file As HttpPostedFile)
