Programatically uploading a document to a document library....

[Pai]

Hello there,
I have a textbox whcih holds a value "C:\test.txt"
I want to upload this file to the document library.
I am using the following code:
1. string strConcept_Proposal = "Concept Proposals";
2. SPSite my_Site = SPControl.GetContextSite(Context);
3. SPWebCollection my_WebCollection = my_Site.AllWebs;
4. foreach (SPWeb my_Web in my_WebCollection)
{

5. SPListCollection my_ListCollection = my_Web.Lists;
6. my_ListCollection.IncludeRootFolder = true;
7. foreach(SPList my_list in my_ListCollection)
8. {
9. if (my_list.BaseType == SPBaseType.DocumentLibrary)
10. {
11. SPDocumentLibrary my_DocLibrary = (SPDocumentLibrary)my_list;
12. doc_title = my_DocLibrary.Title;

13. if ( doc_title.CompareTo(strConcept_Proposal) == 0)
14. {


15. SPFolder spfolder = my_Web.Folders["Concept Proposals"];
16. string dest_url = my_Web.Url + "/Concept%20Proposals/";

17. byte[] binFile = my_test_file.OpenBinary();
18. SPFolder spfolder = my_Web.Folders["Concept Proposals"];
19. SPFile spfile = spfolder.Files.Add(dest_url,binFile);

20. SPListItem splistitem = spfile.Item;
21. splistitem.Update();
22. }

23. }
24. }

25. }
26. }

SPFolder's Add method's 2nd parameter is of type "byte[] file".
I am stuck as to how to fit this in my code...
Any Suggestions how to go about this...
Please help
Kind Regards,
Pai

What exactly is wrong with the current code. It looks OK to me (at least
the file upload method does. I didn't look too much at the other code).
Here is how i usually do it though:

System.IO.FileInfo file = //create or define file info object

System.IO.FileStream stream = file.Open(System.IO.FileMode.Open);
System.IO.BinaryReader myReader = new BinaryReader (stream);

SPFolder myFolder = //define SPFolder

myFolder.Files.Add(file.Name, myReader.ReadBytes((int)(stream.Length)),
myWeb.CurrentUser, myWeb.CurrentUser, file.CreationTime,
file.LastWriteTime);

I have been working on doing the import as well, and have another
error message that is coming up. I am trying to add a file to a
document library not in the root and get an access denied error
message when I am using this code:

SPFile libraryFile = destinationFolder.Files.Add(destinationFolder.Url
+ "/" + Path.GetFileName(strFilePath), fileData,
currentWebArea.CurrentUser, currentWebArea.CurrentUser, dateCreated,
dateModified);

If I use this code it works fine:
SPFile libraryFile = destinationFolder.Files.Add(destinationFolder.Url
+ "/" + Path.GetFileName(strFilePath), fileData, true);

Anyone know why? It works fine if we copy the files to the root
document library or a WSS site, but not a document library not in the
root.

Any help would be appreciated.

Mike

Since the DL is not off the root, it must be off a web. I would create a
instance of that web rather than using the root web.

For example: if you root was http://localhost and your document library was
under http://localhost/marketing, you would do something like this

SPSite site = new SPSite(http://localhost);
SPWeb web = site.AllWebs["Marketing"]; //where Marketing is the name of the
site

then run my original code.
