Erik, Thanks, I was misunderstanding the example.
I am trying to achieve relatively simple file upload. I need to upload a file, save it to disk and also pass it (as text) in a soap message to a webservice. I am able to access the binary contents of the file, but have not been able to write that to disk or access the contents of the file Two questions I have are: How do I serialize a non-text file to disk? (the file serializer documentation says that it must take text/html or text/plain content) And once I have uploaded a file, (assume it is xml), how can convert the binary data into text such that I can access it.? Thanks for your patience.

From there, the example sends the uploaded file to a Web service, and this part is unrelated to the HTTP upload.
