    <p>I'm relatively new to MVC, and I've never had to deal with uploading a file (an image, specifically) to a SQL Server database. To be honest, I don't know what I'm doing here. </p> <p>Here's what I have so far - here's my domain model (note the <code>HttpPostedFileBase</code> in my model - this is what I want to upload):</p> <pre><code>public class Profile { [Key] public int Id { get; set; } [Required(ErrorMessage="Years of service is required")] [DisplayName("Years Service:")] public int YearsService { get; set; } [DataType(DataType.MultilineText)] [DisplayName("Notable Achivements:")] public string NotableAchivements { get; set; } [Required(ErrorMessage = "Technical skills are required")] [DataType(DataType.MultilineText)] [DisplayName("Technical Skills:")] public string TechnicalSkills { get; set; } [DisplayName("Upload Image: ")] public HttpPostedFileBase Photo { get; set; } public string CreatedBy { get; set; } public DateTime CreatedDate { get; set; } public string ModifiedBy { get; set; } public DateTime ModifiedDate { get; set; } } </code></pre> <p>And here's my view:</p> <pre><code>@using (Html.BeginForm("Create", "Profiles", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" })) { &lt;div class="editor-label"&gt; @Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.YearsService) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="editor-field"&gt; @Html.EditorFor(model =&gt; model.YearsService) @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =&gt; model.YearsService) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="editor-label"&gt; @Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.NotableAchivements) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="editor-field"&gt; @Html.EditorFor(model =&gt; model.NotableAchivements) @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =&gt; model.NotableAchivements) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="editor-label"&gt; @Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.TechnicalSkills) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="editor-field"&gt; @Html.EditorFor(model =&gt; model.TechnicalSkills) @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =&gt; model.TechnicalSkills) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;input type="file" name="photo" /&gt; &lt;input type="submit" name="Submit" id="Submit" value="Upload" /&gt; } </code></pre> <p>I hope there's something glaringly obvious that I'm doing wrong. Can anyone provide advice on how to do a simple file upload to a SQL Server database?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
