Hi,
I am looking for a control that is similar to OpenFileDialog in Windows
forms for an ASP.NET web form. So when I click on a browser button, this
control can pop up for the user to open a file. Please give directions.
Thanks.

What do you mean by "open a file?" A file is opened by some application.
What are you planning to do with the file?

Sorry for the confusion. I meant "select a file". So when a user clicks on a
button, a dialog box (which I don't know if there is such a control for web
form) will pop up and the user can select a file. I read this article
( http://www.vbdotnetheaven.com/Code/Sept2003/2175.asp) and try to do the
same in a web form.

Would using the HTML control 'File Upload' work?

<input type="file" />
This is standard HTML, the browser will pop up an open-file dialog box
when the user clicks on the browse button, and then will submit the file
contents along with the form. How to handle it on the server side
depends a bit on what you're planning to do with the uploaded file.

Aha! In other words, you want to upload the file to the server, and save it
to a database. The HTML "input type=file" element is designed to do that.
There is also a .Net HtmlInputFile Control that you can use for this. Here
is alink to an article that describes the HtmlInputFile Control and how to
use it: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ilecontrol.asp
