Httpinputfile Help

Is there a way to programatically create a "PostedFile"?

I currently have an HTTPINPUTFILE control on my page, however, is there a way to either write a value into this control using javascript (ie: some variable), then when posting the form, the file (which would be a something like c:\Test.txt) that was programatically entered into the control, be posted? Or is there a way to do this without using the actual control itself.

Any ideas would be great

Thanks in advance

For security reasons, that control doesn't allow you to set the file name from the server side. Only the user can do it thru browsing.

You have to search for 3rd party controls for that ability.
