    Posted: 10 December 2009 at 7:19pm
Is there a way to allow more file types for upload? The text box is relatively small to allow just the Microsoft Office File Type (2003 and 2007). Is there a way to fix this? 

Also, I am trying to upload a *.doc file and it is telling me it is an incorrect file type. I specifically have it allowed in the settings. Any ideas?

You do not enter a * you just need to enter the extension separated by a semicolon eg:-

zip;rar;doc;pdf;txt;rtf;gif;jpg;png;mp3

This should also allow you to enter more file types as you are presently entering to much data.

Those were actually two questions.
 
My list right now is doc;docx;xls;xlsx;xlsm;pdf;ppt;pptx;txt;rtf;pps
 
This list is too long to be in the allowed file types list.
 
 
The second question involved an error I am getting trying to upload a doc file. I have it listed in the allowed filetypes, but still I get an error. Not sure what the issue is.

The allowed file types list will allow more in version 10. However it can not be changed in the present version.

I don't know why you are not able to upload your doc file as you have given very little information to go on to be able to workout what the reason may be.

Would need to know allot more, including information on your upload setup, upload components, error messages, and steps to try and replicate the error in the lab.
