Is there anyway to limit the files to be uploaded to certain extensions as doc,xls etc...
If not can the upload button for file be disabled, or no visible then the file upload be implemented with a different control
Thanks

Allowing certain file types only will be available in v1.5 which is to be released soon.

Cem:
Do you have any date for this release?
Can I disable the upload permission, then build a control myself?
When I do this
rootFolder.RemovePermissions = FileVistaPermissions.Upload;
I get this error...
Cannot assign to 'RemovePermissions' because it is a 'method group'
Thanks

I get this error when I try to use version 1.5
Error 2 The name 'InsertAllowedFileTypes' does not exist in the current context c:\inetpub\wwwroot\InvestorsOnly2008\FileVistaControl\upload.aspx 16
Thanks

RemovePermissions is a method so you can not assign a value, you should use it instead as
rootFolder.RemovePermissions(FileVistaPermissions.Upload);
You are getting the other error because the old DLLs of the control are still active. Please clean and re-build your project in Visual Studio. Check if the DLLs in your project's bin folder are refreshed.

You can limit the type of files to be uploaded by setting the new property AllowedFileTypes to a list of semi-colon separated extensions:
rootFolder.AllowedFileTypes = "*.jpg; *.doc"
