I have a file upload script that has successfully uploaded files,
although the MS .docx format will not load for some reason. Has
anyone found a workaround/solution to this?

Thanks,
Louis

Would depend on the script, methinks?

Will not load? Into what, from where?

If using IIS6 you will probably need to add the mime types to the Server
mimemap for the office 2007 document formats.

If loading into older office apps you will need the Office 2007 converters
for older versions installed.

This upload script loads blobs into MS SQL server 2000. I've got the
MIME type added in IIS, but the upload is the problem...

Are you also storing the MIME type in SQL Server? If so, how large is your
field? The .docx MIME value is

application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document

This is 71 characters.
