Hi,

You can simply bind the inputField to a document and save it. This is how -

<apex:page standardcontroller=Topics__c" extensions="Topics_Extension">
  <apex:form >
    <apex:pageBlock title="Topics">
                <table width="400px" >
                        <tr>
                                <td>Name:</td>
                                <td><apex:inputField value="{!Topics.Name__c}" required="true" /></td>
                        </tr>

                        <tr>
                                <td>Document:</td>
                                <td><apex:inputFile value="{!topicDoc.body}" filename="{!topicDoc.Name}" required="true" /></td>
                        </tr> 

               </table>

               <apex:pageBlockButtons >
                     <apex:commandButton value="Save" action="{!saveTopics}"/>
               </apex:pageBlockButtons>

       </apex:pageBlock>

      </apex:form>
</apex:page>

The extension - Controller

public with sharing class Topics_Extension {
    public Topics__c Topic;
    ApexPages.StandardController controller;
   
    // CV/resume variables
   public Document topicDoc;   

  
    public Topics_Extension(ApexPages.StandardController controller) {
       this.topics = (Topics__c)controller.getRecord();
       this.controller = controller;

       topicDoc = new Document();
     }

   
    public PageReference saveTopics() { 
        controller.save();

        if (topicDoc.Body != null) {

            topicDoc.folderId = '<SOME ID>' // Give a Folder Id here, where you want the document to be inserted. Mandatory

            topicDoc.Description = 'Some Description' // Add soem description - although this is not a mandatory field

            insert topicDoc;

        }

        return null;
    }
}



Hope this helps.

Hi Ritika,

Thank you for your reply.

i still have troubles doing so. I get a error.

Compile Error: DML requires SObject or SObject list type: Document at line (insert topicDoc).

Do you know how i can fix this.

thanks,

Paul

Hi,

Ideally, this should not throw an error, I have inserted documents like this. Please make sure you have included the topicDoc as a Document (this is a SObject type only). Please share your code here.

Hi,

Please also make sure to include the getter and setter for topicDoc, to have is accessible from VF page.
