Hi,

I am trying to use the mySmartUpload component to allow people to upload files into my server. However, I keep getting the error Invalid Files Name 'logopic' (Error 1205). Here is my code snippet:

In my first page I have a form with a file input type

In my next page,

On Error Resume Next

' Variables
' *********
Dim mySmartUpload
Dim intCount

' Object creation
' ***************
Set mySmartUpload = Server.CreateObject("aspSmartUpload.SmartUpload")

' Only allow txt or htm files
' ***************************
mySmartUpload.AllowedFilesList = "jpg,gif,bmp,png"

' Upload
' ******
mySmartUpload.Upload

intCount = mySmartUpload.Save("/MP")

strLogoPic = mySmartUpload.Files("logopic").FileName

If Err Then
Response.Write(Err.description)
End if

I then get the error message Invalid Files Name 'logopic' (Error 1205). I already checked that the name of my input object in the previous page is indeed 'logopic' but I still get this error.

Can anybody help me? I have been stuck at this for some time.

Thanks.

Epon

Shouldn't this section:

' Only allow txt or htm files
' ***************************
mySmartUpload.AllowedFilesList = "jpg,gif,bmp,png"

Look Like This:

' Only allow txt or htm files
' ***************************
mySmartUpload.AllowedFilesList = ".jpg,.gif,.bmp,.png"

-----------------

Since its not recognising the extension, try that first.

Hi,

Tried it. But didn't work. Anyway the

' Only allow txt or htm files
' ***************************
mySmartUpload.AllowedFilesList = "jpg,gif,bmp,png"

is based on the sample code that was provided with the component when I downloaded it.

Any other suggestions or tips?

Thanks.
