I've read this whole thread and I fail to understand how you "lose the path to the file". Assuming you are using the FileUpload.SaveAs method to save the file, you would be defining a path for the file to be saved to. That path should be the location where the file is uploaded. How can you *lose* that path ?
Perhaps, we need to see (the relevant portion of) your code.
