Hi, If you want to retrive the uploaded file.... use anchor tag and place the file path in the href attribute of the achor tag. My File Regards, Pavan. -- modified at 4:37 Monday 20th November, 2006

That depends on the type of the file, for example if u uploaded an image and u wantto display it u add an image tag to your webform and fill the ImageUrl property with the path of the image u saved on ur web server and so on
