Interesting...thanks, Rebecca.

So, they would pick the first file, then I would use the path
of that file to upload the other files in their directory?

Here's a little javascript majick to do the trick. Create a little
javascript like this:
<InvalidTag type="text/javascript">
function getFile(f) {
f.directory.value = f.uploadFile.value;
}
</script>

Then in the body of the page, your form is like this:

<form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"
name="uploadForm">
Browse to your file directory (pick a file): <input type="file"
name="uploadFile" size="35" onblur="getFile(this.form);"><br>
<input type="hidden" name="directory">
<input type="submit" value="submit">
</form>

When the form is submitted, it will pass the full path of the file that was
selected. Then you can use the CF function Get DirectoryFromPath(path) to
get just the directory path you want to use.
HTH.
