I converted a C# Upload app to VB.NET and am down to one error and was
hoping someone could help me with te error. I would greatly appreciate
help from anyone.

Here is the error:

c:\inetpub\wwwroot\admin\filemanager.aspx.vb(76): Expression is of
type 'System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlInputFile', which is not a
collection type.

Hi Sean,

I do not know what your code does, and did not examine it deeper, however
this does definitly not work

For Each HIF As System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlInputFile In HIF

It can be something as
For Each HIFke As System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlInputFile In HIF

And than things as
HIFke.PostedFile.SaveAs(baseLocation + fn)

I hope this was it?

Cor
 
Changing to hifke got rid of the error, but the upload control is not
working now. Ill have to see what else I have done.

Thanks for the help.
