Use fileupload as template field in a details view - asp.net

Question

I have an admin page where a user will select a document path and add that path to a certain column of a database. I am using a fileupload on the page where they can find the document and copy the path and then paste it into the details view. However, I want to skip this step and I want them to select a document and automatically make the path show up in the details view.
<asp:FileUpload ID="FileUpload1" runat="server" Visible="False" Width="384px" /><br />
<br />
<div>
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional">
<ContentTemplate>
<center> <asp:DetailsView ID="DetailsView1" runat="server" AllowPaging="True" AutoGenerateRows="False"
DataKeyNames="ID" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" Height="128px" Width="544px" Visible="False" OnModeChanged="Button2_Click" CellPadding="4" ForeColor="#333333" GridLines="None" >

I need to get the fileupload1 into the DOC contenttemplate area so instead of showing an empty textbox it will show just a textbox it will show the fileupload

Answer 1

I'm not sure if this helps, but it is a start:
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="DOC">
<InsertItemTemplate>
<asp:FileUpload ID="FileUploadDOC" runat="server" Width="384px" />
</InsertItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
In Codebehind you can set the doc-path in the following way:
Private Sub DetailsView1_ItemInserting(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.DetailsViewInsertEventArgs) Handles DetailsView1.ItemInserting
Dim FileUploadDOC As FileUpload = DirectCast(Me.DetailsView1.FindControl("FileUploadDOC"), FileUpload)
e.Values("DOC") = FileUploadDOC.PostedFile.FileName
End Sub
