Hi Amit, Thanks For Helping, But Here images are not goto uniform. it goes like Photo0,Photo1,Photo3,Photo6,Photo8,Photo7.... i write Dim uniqueID As String = GenerateRandomString(StringType.Numeric, 1).ToString() Dim filename As String = "photo" & uniqueID & ".Jpg" How to solve This.

hi friend, public enum StringType { Numeric = 1, Alpha = 2, AlphaNumeric = 3 } public static string GenerateRandomString(StringType stype, int numberOfChars) { string s = ""; string alphas = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"; //if you want to add other charaters add it here - zero and O are removed to avoid confusion string alphanumeric = "1234567890ABCDEFGHIJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ"; Random rnd = new Random(); for (int i = 0; i { if (stype == StringType.Numeric) { s = String.Concat(s, rnd.Next(10).ToString()); } else if (stype == StringType.Alpha) { s = String.Concat(s, alphas.Substring(rnd.Next(24), 1)); } else { s = String.Concat(s, alphanumeric.Substring(rnd.Next(33), 1)); } } return s; } Pass no. character for random generated string and enumeration of the stringType define above. use following function to generate the random strings and add them to your images names while uploading in your file.SaveAs() method. Please Don't forget to mark as answer.
