any file i created for you would not work on your system since I would be using a different database.

the basic prciples of adding Digital File pro to the Insert and update pages are:

Insert:
1) Add the File Filed

2) add the File manipulation -> Upload file server behavior.

3) After the Upload file server behavior has been added to the page, Edit the Insert Record Behavior.

Select the column you will store the file in, click the lightning bolt next to value and select the Uplaoded File (Name of File Field) -> Server File Name variable from the dynamic databindings

Update:
1) Add the File Filed

3) Add a hidden form element. In the property inspector for the hidden form elementm click the lightning bolt next to initial value, and selcet the image column from the recordset.

4) add the File manipulation -> Upload file server behavior.

5) Click the lightning bolt next to the default file option in the upload file behavior and select the hidden form element.

6) After the Upload file server behavior has been added to the page, Edit the Update Record Behavior.

Select the column you will store the file in, click the lightning bolt next to value and select the Uplaoded File (Name of File Field) -> Server File Name variable from the dynamic data bindings

  ru talking abt dataassist insert record or dreamweaver's ..?  



Really?

the title of the tutorial is "How to apply Digital File Pro to DataAssist Insert and Update pages"

Yes, this applies to using the DataAssist Insert record and Update Record behaviors, _not_ using the Dreamweaver behaviors.

before you start the tutorial, you should have run the data assist wizard to have the update and insert pages created.

  data type : text etc etc
value: ____________ (den lightning bolt)

den FNSH dats it..

So dats it in insert.php?  



yes, that is the lightning bolt you need to click to bind the image column to the server file name variable.

  3) Add a hidden form element. In the property inspector for the hidden form elementm click the lightning bolt next to initial value, and selcet the image column from the recordset.
ans-Which recordset r u talking abt? dataassist or i shud make a new recordset?...  



the update page will already have a recordset in place to return the data for the record that is being edited, this is the recordset you should use.

  4) add the File manipulation -> Upload file server behavior.
Answer- how to add file anything in file field in UE4? whn i click next i get error like PLEASE SPECIFY A FIELD TO USE AS A SOURCE OF YOUR UPLOAD.. So cant proceed after dat..  



in the upload file behavior, there is a dropdown list next to the File Field option, you need to select the file field to use from this dropdown list before clicking next.

  5) Click the lightning bolt next to the default file option in the upload file behavior and select the hidden form element. ANSWER- NOT POSSIBLE  



only because you are not selecting the file field to use before clicking next.

  6) After the Upload file server behavior has been added to the page, Edit the Update Record Behavior. ANSWER - NOT POSSIBLE n AGAIN HOW TO DO EDIT RECORD BEHAVIOR DEN NO RECORD BEEN ADDED N WIC RECORD IS THIS...? DATAASSIST'S OR DREAMWEAVER'S? ..  



it will possible if you have run the data assist wizard to create the update and insert pages before starting the tutorial, again, since this tutorial deals with DataAssist insert and update, it is intended to be used with the DataAssist insert record and Update record behaviors, _not_ with the Dreamweaver insert record and update record behaviors
