To ease development you can specify whether the paths you supply to any ABCUpload method are absolute or virtual. An absolute pathname is a physical path to a file location. For example:

C:\inetpub\wwwroot\mysite\images\mypic.jpg

A virtual pathname is a URL specifying a pathname relative to the current page being processed. For example:

../images/mypic.jpg

Because most uploaded files are saved out into a virtual directory the default behavior is to treat pathnames as virtual. You can change this by changing the value of the AbsolutePath property.

The following code:

theForm.AbsolutePath = False
theForm.Save "../dumps/myupload.dat"

... is functionally equivalent to:

theForm.AbsolutePath = True
theForm.Save Server.MapPath("../dumps/myupload.dat")

Save method. Read method. Overwrite property. XField.Save method.
