Programmatically uploading multiple files to Custom sharepoint list in 2007

Introduction:

A custom SharePoint list can be configured to collect any type of data and SharePoint automatically generates the forms for adding new items, editing items and viewing items.

Team Web site comes with a built-in List Calendar, Task, which is listed on the Quick Launch bar. A new custom list has to be created for storing the files.

Steps creating custom list:


Custom list created


Custom Column Creation

  1. While creating custom list Named as FileList default column will create Title.
  2. Modify column name Title as Filename.
  3. Create one more column as Filedate.
  4. Create one more column as FileSize.
Implementation of Web part

The files are added to the custom GridView (list) in web part level using browse file upload button. You can add and delete multiple files in this list. Finally all the files are uploaded in custom share point list Filelist using submit button in webpart.

The steps to create a web part
  • Make sure installed VS.net 2005.
  • Make sure installed Web part Project Library in your system.
  • Start VS.Net 2005 and create a new project.
  • Select Project Type as Visual C#-->SharePoint.
  • Visual Studio Installed templates as Web Part.
  • Change Name as MultipleUploadWebpart.
  • Change Location as e:\ MultipleUploadWebpart.
  • Change Solution name as FileUploadWebPart.

Using the Render method

The Web part base class seals the Render method of System.Web.UI.Control because the Web Part infrastructure needs to control rendering the contents of a Web Part. For this reason, custom Web Parts must override the Render method of the Web part base class.

Deploy File Upload Web part in the share point server
  1. Right click solution file then select properties. 
  2. Select Debug Start browser with URL selects your respective SharePoint Site.

  3. Select Signing option.

  4. Ensure the strong name key and sign the assembly check box.
  5. Right Click properties select Deploy.

  6. It is automatically deployed the web part in respective site.
  7. Deploy will take care of .Stop IIS, Buliding solution, Restarting Solution, Creating GAC, Restarting IIS like that.

  8. Multiple Upload Webpart is new one.
  9. New MultipleUploadWebpart Web Part.

Events
1. Browse Button 
It is used to browse and select the particular file.

2. Upload Button
It is used to upload file to the windows temp folder then list the files.
3. Submit Button
It is used to store all files in share point custom list.
