Uploading Files with the File Manager

The files that a user uploads through the Web Forms File Manager are saved under the SessionID (or UserName) path. The uploaded files are copied from the client-side computer.

They are deleted from the server-side SessionID path (but not from the UserName path) at the end of the Web Forms session.

This figure shows the PowerBuilder Upload File dialog box for a Web Forms application:

  1. In the left pane of the File Manager, select the directory where you want to copy a file.
  2. Click the Upload File link.
  3. In the PowerBuilder Upload File dialog box, type the file name or browse to the file or files you want to upload.
  4. Click Upload.
    A message in the dialog box indicates if the upload is successful.
  5. Click Close & Refresh to close the dialog box and refresh the file listings in the right pane of the File Manager.
