i found it here

http://forums.asp.net/p/1480079/3451771.aspx

i think it works, but i am a learning noob and have a question...where does my dbase info go in the code?

1. If FleUpload.HasFile Then
2. Dim fileName As String = Server.HtmlEncode(FleUpload.FileName)
3. Dim extension As String = System.IO.Path.GetExtension(fileName)
4. If (extension.ToUpper = ".JPG") Or (extension.ToUpper = ".GIF") Then
5.
6. '**** Resize image section ****
7. Dim image_file As System.Drawing.Image = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(FleUpload.PostedFile.InputStream)
8. Dim image_height As Integer = image_file.Height
9. Dim image_width As Integer = image_file.Width
10. Dim max_height As Integer = 120
11. Dim max_width As Integer = 160
12.
13.
14. image_height = (image_height * max_width) / image_width
15. image_width = max_width
16.
17. If image_height > max_height Then
18. image_width = (image_width * max_height) / image_height
19. image_height = max_height
20. Else
21. End If
22.
23.
24. Dim bitmap_file As New Bitmap(image_file, image_width, image_height)
25. Dim stream As New System.IO.MemoryStream
26.
27. bitmap_file.Save(stream, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg)
28. stream.Position = 0
29.
30. Dim data(stream.Length) As Byte
31. stream.Read(data, 0, stream.Length)
32. '**** End resize image section ****
33.
34.
35. Dim myConn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("cs").ConnectionString)
36. Dim mycmd As New SqlCommand("se_equipmentimages_insert", myConn)
37. mycmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
38.
39. mycmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@equipment_id", id)
40. mycmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@image_file", data)
41.
42. Try
43. myConn.Open()
44. mycmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
45. Catch ex As Exception
46. Finally
47. myConn.Close()
48. End Try
49.
50. Else
51. lblError.Text = "Please only upload .jpg or .gif files"
52. lblError.Visible = True
53. End If
54. Else
55. lblError.Text = "No file selected"
56. lblError.Visible = True
57. End If

to wit...

dbase name: mydBase
table name: dBaseTable
column names :fileOne, fileTwo, fileThree

where in the code above does this go?
also, how does this code work for multiple fileuploads at once?

thanks

Line #35.

[Ramesh S]

The following line reads the database connection information from web.config file.

35. Dim myConn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("cs").ConnectionString)

The sql server connection details can be stored in web.config something like as below.

<appSettings>
     <add key="cs"       value="Server=YourServerName;Database=Northwind;User Id=testuser;Password=somepassword;" />
   </appSettings>

You can also specify the connection details in the code itself

Dim myConn As New SqlConnection("Server=YourServerName;Database=Northwind;User ID=testuser;Password=somepassword;")
