John,
When you use that enctype for uploads the file name is embedded in the
request, but it's not trivial to extract it coz its all in binary. Take a
look at some ASP Upload code, like this link:
http://www.asp101.com/articles/jacob/scriptupload.asp
...you'll see that the code here parses the request to extract things like
file name. You should be able to extract the relevant code to get the
file name from the header.

Phil,
Thanks for that. I have been to the site recommended and what a great help.
I think I would have spent many unhappy hours trying to find my own
solution.
