Hello again,
Ok, to upload into the database through APEX, using the file browser, you need to do the following:
1. Create the file browser item on your page.
2. Create a page process that is executed on the SUBMIT button.
The code should be something like this:
IF ( :P1_FILE_NAME is not null ) THEN
  INSERT INTO oehr_file_subject(id,NAME, SUBJECT, BLOB_CONTENT, MIME_TYPE)
  SELECT ID,:P1_FILE_NAME,:P1_SUBJECT,blob_content,mime_type
     FROM APEX_APPLICATION_FILES
   WHERE name = :P1_FILE_NAME;
  DELETE from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES WHERE name = :P1_FILE_NAME;
END IF;{size:14}Files uploaded through the file browser are inserted into APEX_APPLICATION_FILES and need to be copied into your file.
Be sure to include a column in your table for the filename in {color:green}FILENAME.EXT{color} format so that the system will know how to handle the file when you try to download.
