Hi there,

Can you show your working code and a more detailed description of the issues you're running into? The FileUpload should behave the same, no matter the data control you're using.

Cheers,

Code:

FileUpload FileUpload1 =
(FileUpload)ListView1.InsertItem.FindControl(âFileUpload1â);
string virtualFolder = â~/GigPics/â;
string physicalFolder = Server.MapPath(virtualFolder);
string fileName = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
string extension = System.IO.Path.GetExtension(FileUpload1.FileName);
FileUpload1.SaveAs(System.IO.Path.Combine(physicalFolder, fileName + extension));
myPicture.ImageUrl = virtualFolder + fileName + extension;

what should i do with this

Code:

myPicture.ImageUrl = virtualFolder + fileName + extension;

while using a sqldatasource ?

You can store the value in e.Values["ImageUrl"] or e.NewValues["ImageUrl"] depending on which event you're handling.
