Web Part for loading data

[Gionata]

Hi everyone!

Can you suggest me an example of a sharepoint webpart used to load a file (for example an excel file, whose content will be copied into a datatable); if possible, a solution that provides that when I click on a text box, the browsing window for file's research is automatically opened  and when file is selected by user, the text box is filled with the path of that file.

Thanks in advance.

Gionata.

Hi Gionata,

I am nt wuite sure whether I understand the exact scenario correctly:

• If you want to get the path to a file from the user's local machine - I am afraid that this cannot be achieved with any of the Telerik UI for ASP.NET AJAX controls.
• If you want the user to be able to select a file from the server - you can use RadFileExplorer. A similar implementation for such dialog selector logic is available here: File Selector Dialog. Note, that if you want to list files and folders from a SharePoint library, you will need to implement a custom content provider.

If this is not the case, could you explain in more details what is the exact scenario you want to achieve?

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Vessy
