Hello Joe,

Thank you for your interest in the RadUpload control.

Actually this is a bit complex task, but it is still possible. Please follow the points below:

• Prerequisites: Latest internal build.
  Please note there is a bug in the official release  - the RadUpload breaks the ChunkTag mechanism. Because of this you need the last internal build where this bug is fixed;
• Please follow the instructions in the RadUpload and ChunkTag technique article. Note: for your convenience we attached the code of the RadUploadHandler's ProcessStream method - you can copy and modify it as it is described in the article;
  The Saving files with unique name is another interested article where ChunkTag technique was involved.
  

Note: In the upcoming Q2 release we implemented two virtual methods: InitializeChunkStorage and SaveChunkData. You can use them to minimize the code-impact if you want to save uploaded files anywhere but not in the default file location. Please keep an eye on our blogs where this new feature will be announced.

PS: I have noted you are using an old version of RadControls for Silverlight. Please note there is a newer official version 2009.1.526 (Q1 SP2) and the Q2 release was planned for next week.
