how to find perticular id and that file name from d'base and match with image name in Image Folder.
can any one give me a solution...?

 Hi,

Try this:

System.IO.FileInfo fi = new System.IO.FileInfo(Server.MapPath("~/image1.jpg"));
        if (fi.Exists)
            fi.Delete();

Hey,

You can delete it in the OnRowDeleting event of the gridview.

• http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.gridview.onrowdeleting.aspx
  

If you store the image path in the gridview (either show it or put it in DataKeyNames) then you will be able to get the path during this event without having to do a select.

• http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.file.delete.aspx
  

You can use File.Delete() to remove the image from the filesystem.

• http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.file.delete.aspx
  

If you have built a datalayer then you can do this in your delete method so that it is always deleted when you call it and you dont have to rewrite it for each page.

 Hi,

Try this:

view plaincopy to clipboardprint?

1. System.IO.FileInfo fi = new System.IO.FileInfo(Server.MapPath("~/image1.jpg"));  
2.         if (fi.Exists)  
3.             fi.Delete();  

System.IO.FileInfo fi = new System.IO.FileInfo(Server.MapPath("~/image1.jpg"));
        if (fi.Exists)
            fi.Delete();

 

Fyi - You dont need to check if the file exists as an exception is not thrown if you call file.delete on a file that doesnt exist. (see msdn docs link above)

using System.IO;

File.Delete(Server.MapPath("FolderName/YourFileNameWithExtension"));

This code will help You!

protected void btnDeletet_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

 { 

try {

FileInfo TheFile = new FileInfo(MapPath(".") + "\\" + txtFile.Text);

     if (TheFile.Exists) {

       File.Delete(MapPath(".") + "\\" + txtFile.Text);

     } 

else {

throw new FileNotFoundException();

     }

}



   catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {

lblStatus.Text += ex.Message;

}

   catch (Exception ex) {

lblStatus.Text += ex.Message;

}



 }


dont forgot to import 
using System.IO;

in the begining of the class

  File.Delete(Server.MapPath("images") & "/" & "winter.jpg")

You have to write the code on where you are going to write the delete query there get the image name (ex: sample.jpg) while you click the Delete button then pass the image before you delete query to delete the image from the folde by writing the code

System.IO.FileInfo fi = new System.IO.FileInfo(Server.MapPath("~/sample.jpg"));
if (fi.Exists)
fi.Delete();

how to get image name? This is my delete code.im using stored procedure.

protected void btnDelete_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

     string CheckValues = string.Empty;

     for (Int32 i = 0; i < gvList.Rows.Count; i++)

 {

CheckBox chk = (CheckBox)gvList.Rows[i].FindControl("CheckBoxbtn");

 if (chk.Checked == true)

{

CheckValues = CheckValues + "'"+((Label)gvList.Rows[i].FindControl("lblId")).Text+"'" + ",";

}

 }

 if (CheckValues != "")

{

CheckValues = CheckValues.Substring(0, CheckValues.Length - 1);

}

objNewes.ID = CheckValues; 

objNewes.DeleteAnnouncement();

 }

In ur table, there is filed to the image save.Rite?

I think the image path/ImageName will be saved into the db..

before you delete the record(1 row),You can get the imageName from the db and passs the

imageName to this line.ok? got?

File.Delete(Server.MapPath("FolderName/'+YourImageName+'"));

Got????????

Or plese paste ur code fully.................................

objNewes.ID = CheckValues; 

After this line You will get the id like this '1,2,3,4,5'

and before we delete this  you have to take the image names using this ids(use your logic).

then pass the old code for delete..((((((((File.Delete...etc............. got?

then write......................

objNewes.DeleteAnnouncement();

Here , what you do , ie in your Gridview  Place Label or Hiddenfield so bind the image name to Label like this

<asp:label id ="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("imagename") %>' />

Then on you button delete get the image name

protected void btnDelete_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

     string CheckValues = string.Empty;

     for (Int32 i = 0; i < gvList.Rows.Count; i++)

 {

CheckBox chk = (CheckBox)gvList.Rows[i].FindControl("CheckBoxbtn");

 if (chk.Checked == true)

{

CheckValues = CheckValues + "'"+((Label)gvList.Rows[i].FindControl("lblId")).Text+"'" + ",";

Label Lblimagename= (Label)gvList.Rows[i].FindControl("Label1")).Text;

// so you get the  image name by usgin Lblimagename.Text so using this delete 

// the image , the code that i gave already check it.

}

 }

 if (CheckValues != "")

{

CheckValues = CheckValues.Substring(0, CheckValues.Length - 1);

}

objNewes.ID = CheckValues; 

objNewes.DeleteAnnouncement();

 }
