i'm using the asp.net file upload control. What i'd like to be able to do is upload the and save it on the server as a different name. Can i do this or do i need to upload first and then figure out how to rename it once it's on the server. wondering what my options are. thanks

You should just save the file with the required name as it is shown in the MSDN:

if (FileUpload.HasFile)
{
     string Prename = "PavanKumar";               
     string ext = System.IO.Path.GetExtension(FileUpload.PostedFile.FileName);
     disp.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/Admin/") + Prename +ext);
}

You can pass in the file name you want and pass it to the SaveAs method like...

Suppose you want to store your file in the UserFiles Folder that is on the root of your website:

FileUpload.PostedFile.SaveAs(Server.Mappath("~/UserFiles/") + "NewFileName");
