We have a project in Genexus 15 web, c# where we upload an xlsx file and then process it to import that data and it works without problems. We migrated the project and the processes where we use blob type attributes to import data stopped working.

Can someone give us an idea if we have to modify something in Gx 18 to be able to migrate these processes?

&Archivo is an blob attribute &filepath is an varchar attribute

This is due to security improvements since GX 17 u4

Instead of :

&RDEP_XLS.Open(&filepath)

Try this:

&File.Source = &filepath //&File: File datatype, &FilePath: Blob datatype
&RDEP_XLS.Open(&File.GetURI()) //&RDEP_XLS: ExcelDocument datatype
