Sending a path to a FILE control ( it has to be possible! )

[CHIN]

Hi all.. here s my problem ( maybe some of you saw me on other groups, but i
cant find the solution !! )
I have to upload a file to an external site, so, i made a .vbs file , that
logins to the site, and then i have to select the file to upload.. i used
sendkeys.. and i worked perfect.. BUT ... the computer must be locked for
security ( obviusly ) reazons.. so..i think this probable solutions to
unlock the computer and run the application .. or find
another way to fill the FILE control on that site...

- I read some groups, and i found a SendMessage() function, that sends
characters to an especific application, but dont know wich language is it...
and if it runs on a locked computer.
- I can do the click on BROWSE button, but how can i select a file on the
browse window ? ( without using SENDKEYS ) .. i can do a VB6 application
that runs the URL in a webcontrol, but cannot acces to that BROWSER window
right?
- Is there any browser with the security bug that i can write in the VALUE
property of the FILE control?? or is anyway to set that security on
IExplorer?
- .NET .... is there anyway to do this in .NET (ASP.NET or VB.NET) ? i m
begginer but if it could be possible.. i learn .NET in one hour !! lol..
Any idea would be really help here..

Thank you all.

You're not a jerk. You're just lazy! And that is certainly something that
can be remedied. I have been working on parsing Digital Elevation Models and
GeoTiffs, for rendering real-time GPS-driven 3-D terrain and situational
awareness information for small aircraft pilots for about 6 months now. I've
had to teach myself DirectX, Indigo, parsing binary image file formats, and
a good bit of geography, trigonomentry, and a smattering of calculus. Most
of this is stuff that almost nobody else is doing. You know how I solved my
problems? Research. My Home Page is Google.

I will give you one last piece of help:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

That is the FREE Microsoft .Net SDK, which you can download and use to your
heart's content. That is where I spend the second-most amount of my research
time.

From time to time, I do ask somebody for help. What I get is generally a
shove in the right direction, and I take it from there. That's all anyone
should need.

I will probably get clobbered (again) for doing this, but if I didn't feel
it was truly in your best interest I wouldn't do it.

Good luck!

I'm not following you. The Windows Form that you embed in the page
doesn't
need to do anything with the WebForm it resides in. It just has to
display
the dialog box, create the WebClient, and send it to its destination. If
a
POST request is needed, the WebClient can do a POST.
