I do not want users to be able to delete files once they are uploaded. I looked but I do not see a property that disables the delete checkbox. I do not want the average user deleting files but instead I want to create a separate secure page that will allow someone with the proper security to delete files.

FileUpload component doesn't have a checkbox, or delete option, or anything for deleting files. How did you create it?

This is right from your very own documentation. It does have a delete option!!!!!!!

http://docs.codecharge.com/studio/html/Components/Objec...erview.html?toc

Here is a jpeg from your docs

http://docs.codecharge.com/studio/html/Components/Objec...ad/image010.jpg

Clearly states "Delete" to me.


You guys are starting to scare me with answers like this.

Oops. Sorry about this. I usually handle FileUploads only in insert mode of the record form, so I never see that checkbox.
Well, you can:
a) delete that checkbox from your page, including the "delete" word
b) do not allow record updates, just inserts, unless you want the users to update some other fields in the record but not the file.

Thanks.

I will physically delete the checkbox and delete text label from my page since users must update other fields on the record.

Physically deleting that checkbox causes major problems. That delete checkbox is embedded in the classes.asp file
If IsUploaded And Not Required And Not (DeleteControlBlock Is Nothing) Then  
            If IsEmpty(ExternalDeleteControlName) Then  
              DeleteControlBlock.Variable("DeleteControl") = DeleteControlName  
            Else  
              DeleteControlBlock.Variable("DeleteControl") = ExternalDeleteControlName  
            End If  
            DeleteControlBlock.Parse ccsParseOverwrite  
            UploadBlock.Visible = Required  
          End If

deleting causes too many problems

OK, please check that you still have this code in the HTML after deleting the checkbox:
<!-- BEGIN DeleteControl --><!-- END DeleteControl -->

If it's not there, please add it after:
<!-- END Upload -->

So the full FileUpload section in HTML should look like the following:
        <!-- BEGIN FileUpload FileUpload1 --><input type="hidden" value="{State}" name="{ControlName}">  
        <!-- BEGIN Info --> {FileName} {FileSize} bytes. <!-- END Info -->  
        <!-- BEGIN Upload --><input class="CaravanInput" type="file" name="{FileControl}"><!-- END Upload -->  
        <!-- BEGIN DeleteControl --><!-- END DeleteControl --><!-- END FileUpload FileUpload1 -->

Hi Stanchat.
The best way to handle this is to leave the delete check there and disable
the delete check box by using the editable grid security feature.

By doing that you can control which group of users can delete the upload
file

For example Admin can delete but not the normal users group

Or only the person that did the upload can delete the file.
