Here we go small ASP.NET/C#.NET snippet to view the uploaded file!
Demo.aspx
<form id="form1" runat="server" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <div> <asp:FileUpload runat="server" ID="fileUpload" /> <asp:Button runat="server" Text="Upload" OnClick="FileUpload_Click" /> <asp:HyperLink runat="server" ID="lnkButton" Text="View File" /> </div> </form>
Demo.aspx.cs
protected void FileUpload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (fileUpload.HasFile) { string strPath = Request.PhysicalApplicationPath + "Upload\\" + fileUpload.FileName; fileUpload.SaveAs(strPath); lnkButton.NavigateUrl = "~/Upload/" + fileUpload.FileName; } }
Happy Coding!!!

Kishore,
Weird! Can you tell me how code it? Also check the Content Type. Is it set properly?
Thanks,

Thanks for prompt response.
My code:
GenFunctions objGenFunc = new GenFunctions();
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
byte[] bytFile = null;
string strFileExt = DownloadType;
string strFileName = “”;
ds = objGenFunc.GetTSSReportFileData(ReportReqId);
if (ds.Tables[ds.Tables.Count – 1].Rows[0][“ErrorStatus”].ToString() == “SUCCESS”)
{
if (DownloadType == “.PPT”)
{
bytFile = (byte[])ds.Tables[0].Rows[1][“FileData”];
strFileName = ds.Tables[0].Rows[1][“FileName”].ToString();
strFileName=strFileName.Replace(“.ppt”, “.PPT”);
}
else
{
if (ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][“FileExt”] == System.DBNull.Value)
{
bytFile = (byte[])ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][“FileData”];
strFileName = ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][“FileName”].ToString() + “.XLS”;
}
else if (ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][“FileExt”].ToString().ToUpper() == “ZIP”)
{
bytFile = (byte[])ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][“FileData”];
strFileName = ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][“FileName”].ToString() + “.ZIP”;
strFileExt = “.zip”;
}
else
{
bytFile = (byte[])ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][“FileData”];
strFileName = ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][“FileName”].ToString() + “.XLS”;
}
}
}

break;
}
if ((bytFile != null))
{
Response.AddHeader(“Content-disposition”, “attachment;filename=\”” + strFileName.ToUpper() +”\””);
Response.BinaryWrite(bytFile);
Response.End();
}
Do I understand that a special pickup is required for CFLs etc and that a project ID will be required?
It is so pleasurable to read this.
Hi,
