Attaching and mailing an image
Firstly, Whenever you want to attach anything with a mail, u press the 'Attach' button and a window shows up in which you can find the file to be attached and give its path. How is that possible in an ASP.NET page ?
Secondly, if the file path is selected in the manner explained above, how can I actually mail the attached image to any email address using VB code? Basically a user selects the image he wants to use while registering on my website and i want that image to somehow come on the server so that i can use it on the ASP webpages. I am totally blank about these concepts, kindly elaborate in detail. Thank you.

I'll get you started.
Since we are doing this in asp.net all the actions you describe must happen on the server. To attach a file to an email, you must first get that file up to the server somewhere. To do this use the serverside file input control Code:
<input type=file runat=server id=file1> you can then copy that file selected up to the server Code:
Public Sub PostFile
dim path as string
path = server.mappath("the directory on the server you want to copy the file too")
'to retain the files original name you need to parse it out
dim filename() as string
filename = split(file1.postedfile.filename ,"\") 'load the full path into an array
'now build the destination for your file
dim Destination as string
Destination = path & "\" & filename(ubound(filename))
'finally save the file to your server
File1.PostedFile.SaveAs(Destination)
End Sub
To email the file you can use the CDONTS object
