I'm not sure it's considered part of the public API (it's not in the book), but you can do:
filepath = db.mytable.myupload.retrieve_file_properties(row.myupload)['path' ] The returned dictionary also includes a "filename" key, which holds the decoded (i.e., original) filename. More generally, when uploadseparate=True, the filepath is /path/to/uploadfolder/tablename/fieldname/uuid[:2], where uuid is the 16-character UUID segment in the stored filename (i.e., tablename.fieldname.uuid.base64encoded_filename).
