Hi,
I am trying to create a simple C# application that I can run from my home computer that will upload a file to some web space I have.
I have managed to create an ASP.NET file that I have uploaded and when I browse for a file and upload it, it works fine.
My question is how to do this from a C# application as opposed to a web one? I have looked into using Client.UploadFile, but this does not seem feasible.
This is an example of the ASP.NET code I am using:
I now need to use this from my computer to upload the file. Any suggestion of how to go about this would be very helpful...
Thanks,
Dan

Code:

<body bgcolor="#ffffff" style="font:8pt verdana;">
<script language="C#" runat="server">

return;
}
if (null != uplTheFile.PostedFile)

try

uplTheFile.PostedFile.SaveAs(strBaseLocation+strFileNameOnServer);
txtOutput.InnerHtml = "File <b>" +
strBaseLocation+strFileNameOnServer+"</b> uploaded successfully";
}
catch (Exception e)

txtOutput.InnerHtml = "Error saving <b>" +
strBaseLocation+strFileNameOnServer+"</b><br>"+ e.ToString();

<table>

</form>
</table>
<span id=txtOutput style="font: 8pt verdana;" runat="server" />
</body>
</html>I now need to use this from my computer to upload the file. Any suggestion of how to go about this would be very helpful...
