upload doc question

On my web app i allow users to upload documents to the database, BUT I only
want to call this function if there is a document to upload.
how can I veify that the Upload file control has something in it to upload?

I used this code:

Dim iLength As Integer = CType(File1.PostedFile.InputStream.Length, Integer)
If iLength = 0 Then Exit Sub 'not a valid file

Here's more info:
