  I set the OverwriteExistingFiles attribute to false, but files are being overwritten any way?
  
  Version:2010.2.817.20
  
  Here is my code:
  
  

   

  <

   

   

  telerik:RadAsyncUpload runat="server" ID="AsyncUpload" Skin="Office2007" OverwriteExistingFiles="false" MultipleFileSelection="Automatic" Width="250" OnFileUploaded="RadAsyncUpload1_FileUploaded">

   

  </

   

   

  telerik:RadAsyncUpload>

  Hi Allan,
  
  The developers of RadAsyncUpload decided not to implement this property on purpose. It is only available in RadUpload.
  
  However you can use the FileUploaded server-side event to easily implement this functionality yourself. Here's how you can do that:
  

  protected void RadAsyncUpload1_FileUploaded(object sender, FileUploadedEventArgs e)

  {

      string targetFolder = "Files";

   

      string targetFileName = Path.Combine(Server.MapPath(targetFolder), e.File.GetName());

      if (!File.Exists(targetFileName))

      {

          e.File.SaveAs(targetFileName);

      }

      else

      {

          // Implement logic

      }

  }

  I implemented the code you provided.
  
  The file gets copied over even if the SaveAs function is not called.

  Hello Allan,
  
  You have to remove the TargetFolder property from the AsyncUpload. When the upload has this property set, it's going to save the file to this location on postback automatically, regardless of what you do inside the FileUploaded event.
