Hi

I need users to be able to upload multiple files from a web page. I am able to do it for a single file using the "TextBox.Web_InputType_File", however this allows for only one file to be uploaded at a time. Is there a way to upload multiple files at once?
Also the project requires the file to be distributed over many machines. So far I find that I am only able to upload files to the server machine and only move it within that machine. Is it possible to move uploaded files to a remote machine using IP addresses and virtual directories or should another application be created to accept file transfers?

Jason

I'm not too sure how the http.dll handles file uploads, but multiple file uploads is dealt with in the MIME data sent by the server (when the enc-type of the form is set to multipart/form-data). Can you not have multiple text boxes and have each one accept only one file? (Not very nice I know).

You could copy the files to other computers by having a drive mapping to those computer and simply copying the file from source to destination (or you could use the UNC path to the other drive).
