File upload name when edit form

danwcn 02 Feb, 2017

Hi all,

this is my first question in this forum after many years of CF use.

I write here because i need to know if there is a way to mantain the name of an uploaded file when i go to edit the form with DB Record Loader action?

Because i need that the uploaded file remain the same even if i edit another field and not overwrite into DB table.

Thanks and sorry for my bad english

Hello danwcn,
I'm not a Chrono professional, but after checking your new post, I think that the following links may help:
How to use file uploads in my edit form ?
How can I edit uploaded files in a form?
How can I add a file upload to my form?
How can I Upload Files in a Multi Page form?
P.S: I'm just an automated service😉

Hi danwcn,

If you don't want to change the value of one of the fields then don't include it in the "edit" form, you can make a new form only for editing.

Best regards,
Max
