Hi I am developing some application that will be installed on multiple clients. Each client can connect to a SQL database on the server and modify its contents. I am looking a way that clients can copy some files on the server storage using this application, but can not do that using windows explorer or external program. How can I do that? if this is not possible, how can clients tell server to copy their files to the server storage?

Thanks for your answers .

One possibility is to use the xp_cmdshell command[^] to execute a DOS command, 'Copy' for example.

Hello,

Your question is a bit unclear do you want to copy files to a server share, or as a blob in your database?

if you want to copy files in a share, You could use the File class:

System.IO.File.Copy(@"c:\myfile.txt", @"\\server\share\myfile.txt");

If you want to copy your files to database have a look at this article showing you how to deal with BLOBs

Store and retrieve objects as BLOBs in SQL Server 2000 and 2005 using ASP.NET 2.0[^]

You can setup a FTP server on the server machine, and give each client an account to upload files. .Net has a FTP object you can use as well.
