Urgent: Upload image to database

[galgal5814]

I would like to upload an image from the vb.net webform into the database. I am
not using BLOB. Instead I store the image's path name into the database. Can anyone give me an idea on how to upload the image using this method? I had tried searching on google but most of the examples that I fouind is using BLOB.Please help.

I had managed to upload the file to the specific folder but I would like to rename the file upon upload. Below is my code. Can anyone help me on renaming the file upon upload? Thank you

Function UploadMainImage()

'Check to make sure we actually have a file to upload

If Not (fileUpload1.PostedFile Is Nothing) Then

Dim strLongFilePath As String = fileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName

Dim intFileNameLength As Integer = InStr(1, StrReverse(strLongFilePath), "\")

strFileName = Mid(strLongFilePath, (Len(strLongFilePath) - intFileNameLength) + 2)



Select Case fileUpload1.PostedFile.ContentType

'Make sure we are getting a valid JPG image

Case "image/pjpeg", "image/jpeg"

filepath = Server.MapPath("\") & "\samplelogin\images\upload\"

fileUpload1.PostedFile.SaveAs(filepath & strFileName)

Return True

Case Else

'Not a valid jpeg image

lblMsg.Text = "Not a valid jpeg image"

Return False

End Select

End If
End Function

Sub btnUpload_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnUpload.Click


uploadSucess = UploadMainImage()
