Windows Form Event to Upload Files

richard smith

I am using an ASP.Net web application where I use a browse button to choose a file type then a browse button to locate a file, and it places this data in a SQL table.

2 questions stemming from this...
1) if I just added the data directly to the table from a push button event, would that essentially replicate the steps of me logging into the web form and following the steps described above?

2) if the answer to question 1 is yes...what would some sample coding be to perform this? I could probably tweak it if I had a guide to go from.

I know that the webpage was built using ASP.Net, but that is all that I know about the website I want to upload the files to.

I want to use a C# windows form to programatically upload the files to this web site. Going off the link you provided, if I used C# and ran a SQL INSERT INTO statement would that essentially be the same process as going to the website and uploading a file?

Your question title says "Windows Forms" but in question, you talked about ASP.NET. Both are different technologies.

To answer your first question, Logging has nothing to do with reading an image and storing it in a database.

Here is an article that shows how to store an image in database,
