There are several ways of uploading a file! You can use a component as
already mentioned, you can use PHP as already mentioned you can also write a
vanilla ASP page that will also do an upload AND DOESN'T need additional
components installed, which happens to be the way I do it!

You need to decide which method your comfortable with/can afford! If you
want help, there are as you can see, lots of developers on this list and we
are all more than willing to help.

The main thing is whatever you do, it has to be done using a server side
system not client side, and which ever root you decide to go down is
determined by what your ISP supports unless of course you wish to change ISP
and we can all offer you advice on that as well.

Hello All Im new to the list (Yesterday) but I can answer this one

As far as I know the only way to do it is to is for your ISP to make
available a file upload component. I have used SA-FileUp in the past. in MS
/ ASP land. this will need to be installed on your ISP's server.
The component is available from

I have then saved the file to a directory on the server using ASP and sent
it using ASPmail object available from.
