IE popup = IE.AttachToIE(Find.ByUrl("http://localhost/admin/Uploadfile.aspx")); popup.Fileupload(Find.ById("upload1_File")).set("D:\vinay\watin.zip");

Answer 1

Why don't you just set the field (that hold the path) without showing the pop-up, or clicking any buttons? All you need is get the text field Id & do something like:

ie.TextField("Upload_File_Path_Field_ID")).Text = "D:\vinay\watin.zip";
