Create file not found message.

hi,

i have only been doing this a couple of days, so any help would really be appreciated.
i have made a page for work which uploads and file you select into a directory on one of our sql servers.
the file is uploading fine.
the problem is that i need to create a user friendly error message for when the users doesnt select a file before they submit the form.
at the moment it is a cold fusion message

'The form field "form.file" did not contain a file.'


here is the code,


<cfif isdefined("form.submit")>
<cffile action="upload" destination="**************" filefield="form.file" nameconflict="overwrite">

<form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="submit" id="submit" >

<table width="100%" border="0" align="left">
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><span class="style9">NEW ENTRY </span></td>
</tr>

<tr valign="bottom">
<td width="71%" height="73"><div align="left"><span class="style9">SELECT FILE</span>

<input name="file" type="file" size="100" />
</div></td>

<td width="29%">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"/></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td colspan="2">&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<cfif isdefined("form.submit")>
<td height="51" colspan="2"> THE FILE HAS BEEN UPDATE SUCCESSFULLY!!

</cfif>
</tr>
</table>

</form>


cheers for your help

Did you read the documentation ?

In any event, the problem appears to be in your fileField attribute which takes the name of a form field without any scope (it already knows it has to be in the form scope):

<cffile action="upload" destination="**************" filefield="file" nameconflict="overwrite">
