    Sanjeet,

    Use .net Interop to calculate the size of the file using FileInfo Object and then upload the file. For the sample of how to check the file size check below.

    Hi Sanjeet,

    First ....you check file size after .... store file blob filed

    Ex....

    Name DataType

    FILE           File

    filesize Integer

    FILE.OPEN('E:\download\xyz.jpg');

    filesize := FILE.LEN;                              // size give on byte

    IF (filesize > 50000/1000) THEN           // 1 kb = 1000 byte  ..... put your condition //50 kB
