I'm trying to follow the samples, but I'm finding them confusing.  I'm using the multiple file upload.  How do I specify the folder to save the uploaded files in?  Also, can I change the filenames?

 

Finally, I want to limit the file uploads to 10.  I see how to determine when the limit is reached, but not how to disable the control.  Is there a way to enforce a maximum number of uploads?

Diane,

 

>>How do I specify the folder to save the uploaded files in? Also, can I change the filenames?

 

Yes, you can specify the uploaded file name and location.

 

For example, you create a multiple upload control:

 

<CuteWebUI:UploadAttachments runat="server" ID="TopicFiles">
       <VALIDATEOPTION AllowedFileExtensions="jpeg, jpg, gif, zip, doc, pdf" MaxSizeKB="10240" />
</CuteWebUI:UploadAttachments>

 

 

To save the uploaed files, you need to some code like this:

 

    //use to array so the Delete action will not break the foreach.
        foreach (AttachmentItem attitem in TopicFiles.Items.ToArray())
        {
            if (attitem.Checked)
            {
                //Copies the uploaded file to a new location.
                attitem.CopyTo("c:\\temp\\"+attitem.FileName);

            }
        }

 

The file name and location of the uploaded files can be easily specified.

Yes. We just created a new example and will add it into the download package tomorrow.
