Uploading documents using asp and access

[therese]

Hello All, I am new to this forum and have a huuuuge problem.

I am trying to allow my users to upload a Word document using a web form, send the document to a folder on the server and submit the path of this document and the other inputted data into an access database.

This must be an easy thing, am I just being stuppid stuppid me?

Please help!

ASP doesn't have built-in support for uploading files, so you have to use an upload component for the uploading. That will save it to whatever location you want, then you can insert your data into Access.

like catalyst says, your first step is to find out which upload components your host supports.

if your host doesn't support uploading, there are ASP scripts you can use to achieve it.
