Hi All,

I want to create a form to import CSV file. The form should be a grid. So, the grid allows the user to import the file and description of the file.

I have to store file path and description.

I don't know which control is supporting to upload the file. Please help me.

Thanks for advance,

Hari

    Hi,

    I have created string field in the table and assign the value "FilenameOpen" in the extended data types property.

    I have added that field in the form design and also i have added some below methods in that form.

    str fileNameLookupFilename()

    {

       return '';

    }

    container fileNameLookupFilter()

    {

       return ['All *.csv files','*.csv'];

    }

    str fileNameLookupInitialPath()

    {

       return '';

    }

    str fileNameLookupTitle()

    {

       return "@SYS53008";

    }

    Now, it is working fine. Thanks for your reply,

    Thanks,

    Hari

    This might be a little late for Thameem Tharick but may help someone else. The methods described above by Hariharan S should be added at the highest or outer most scope of the form.
