Can someone please help....
I'm having major issues with a user control I'm tring to create!
I an trying to execute a sub called UploadData() from a user control which I
managed to do but for some reason I keep getting the error:
Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set
to an instance of an object.
Source Error:
Line 114: Sub UploadData()
Line 115: 'Dim ImageFile As System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlInputFile
Line 116: Dim imgstream As Stream = ImageFile.PostedFile.InputStream
Line 117: Dim imgdata(ImageFile.PostedFile.ContentLength) As Byte
Line 118: imgstream.Read(imgdata, 0,
ImageFile.PostedFile.ContentLength)
Error is on line 116...
I know that the sub works because if I put it staight into the aspx page it
works fine but as soon as I put the sub into the User Control it seems to
stop working as ImageFile.PostedFile.InputStream = nothing...
Can someone please please HELP.... Why does this happen???
Thanks
