Recently I came across the requirement that user can only select only one file to upload. File size can be large. I almost tried all free upload controls on web. Finally I got inspired from Multiple File Upload with Progress Bar Using Flash and ASP.NET – (By darick_c)  on code project and thought of creating single file upload using FLEX. I didn’t do much, just changed swf as a required. I’m not going to explain everything, code is attached and you can find explanation at above link.

I have changed some UI of the control and made it relevant to single file.

 Download the code attached with this article and read comments.

You may want to change size limit and files supported.

<FlashUpload:FlashUpload ID="flashUpload" runat="server"             UploadPage="Upload.axd" OnUploadComplete="UploadComplete()"             FileTypeDescription="Images" FileTypes="*.gif; *.png; *.jpg; *.jpeg"             UploadFileSizeLimit="10000000" TotalUploadSizeLimit="50097152" />

Web.config file settings

<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="1550000"/>

-----  = change as required

This is what I have been looking for, great. Would it be possible to get the source file for the swf? I would like to make some mxml changes.
