Hi All

In my application i want to keep a button. On clicking this button an openfiledialog box appears and the user can provide excel, pdf or word files. The file then should be saved to the database. For my application I am using a sql ce db for saving data. Please tell me how to do this and please suggest if i should use sql db instead of sql ce db to upload files.

This is a windows application and not a web page.

Please someone help!!
