Creating a File Management System with File Genie Support
In this article Patrick will show you how to built a simple File Management System in ASP using File Genie and Pure ASP Upload 3. He will first take you through the steps of creating a basic structure in which the information will be displayed and where the navigation will take place. Next he will walk you through creating a form for adding files.
To end this article Patrick will show you a couple of possibilities for adding extra options to this basic File Management System.
Creating the File Delete Link
To complete the initial setup of the File List, a File Delete Link will be created that will create the possibility to delete a selected file.
- Make sure the cursor is placed in the top right cell of the table inside the File List column.
- Enter the word Delete. This can be changed to other text or an image later on.
- Select the word Delete.
- Open File Delete under Server Behaviors, DMX Zone, File Genie, File Delete.
- Make sure the Folder List named Files is selected in the Folder List Name field.
- The Action Link should read Selection: "Delete".
- Click OK.

Patrick started developing websites at the age of 25, only using HTML and building simple websites. Through the years his passion for designing and developing grew, and his career moved in that direction in the year 2004, when he decided to try and get a job in ICT and Web Development.
He got this chance at WE ICT, based in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. For the first couple of years he combined network management for customers with creating database-driven websites in ASP. Since 2008 his main work is on the developing part.
While ASP is still his favorite language, he's slowly trying to dive into ASP.NET and discover all of the possibilities.
