I assume you mean you want to upload multiple files from a client machine to a server machine. Multiple files are tricky from a UI point of view. It depends on how many you want. Recently we had to provide a web solution that uploaded 150 images per product. One way would have been to develop an ActiveX control that the client downloaded. The other way was we had the client zip up the 150 files and then just upload the zip. On the server side we then used a .NET Sourceforge unzip library to extract all the files. Worked like a bomb. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Miszou wrote: I have read the entire internet. on how boring his day was. Crikey! ain't life grand?

:-D I was wondering if that phrase is used outside of SA. It is a good thing, means it worked well, effective as a bomb. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Miszou wrote: I have read the entire internet. on how boring his day was. Crikey! ain't life grand?

Depends on the client limitations. You could use * A DIME attachment and call a web service * Have the client ZIP them and upload one file * Client side javascript to build a list of files to be send and upload them all * FTP A project I did recently required several hundred files to be updated on a weekly basis. I used WebServices with a DIME attachment but it was a little slow. The main thing was that we did not have an FTP port open and the files were automatically posted by a program running on the client's machine as a service. Was all transparent to the user. Rocky
