Upload file to server?

[terbs]

Is it possible to use Access to upload files from a client to a server?

My scenario is for users to upload images of a product to a directory on our server. I will then store the root string of the images location in a field in the database.

Ideally you can just browse for the file on your hard drive like when uploading to a website.

(I want to avoid phyiscally storing the images as a BLOB in the database, as our SQL is replicating over a VPN and our website has been programmed already to retrieve images using the root string.)

If anyone has examples/blogs that would be great.

Generally, yes...but you will have to write all the functionality yourself. I don't have any code snippets though there are plenty of non-specific examples in Help.
