Hi,
I want to copy a file from a variable location
"C:\...\myDocument\thisfile.txt" to a destination D:\data\
How can I do that? I tried to get the path from <input tyep=file>, but I
couldn't pass this value to the filesystemobject
Thanks for any idea.

Have you already uploaded the file to C:\whatever\ on the server? Or is
that location on the client?
You can't access the client's file system directly... you will need to
upload the file to the server, and if you're doing that, just save the file
to d:\data\ (how you do this depends on the component you're using).

This doesn't make much sense... input type = file is going to post a
binary/OLE object, not a string merely representing its path... did you try
your code?

hehe, apologies, it was meant to be type=text not file (I'm having a bad
hair day).

Sorry, I didn't specify that I do that at the local server, so I don't have
to upload. That means C: and D: are in the same machine. This is for
convenience only
In addition, I want to know to get the value(string) of the path
"C:\...\myDocument\thisfile.txt", whose value is also from by click on the
"Browse..." button. This value can be caught after submitting the form. Any
idea?
Thanks

The Browse... button initiated by INPUT TYPE=FILE is for uploading a file,
not selecting the name of a file. You should create your own directory
browser with FileSystemObject for that functionality.
