Thanks for your input.<br>Also I wanted the file corresponding entry should be in file_manage table.<br>So I was wondering if we can do file uploading using drupal framework.<br>Any such module is there , that can upload all the files from local machine, and write corresponding entry in file_manage table.<br>

      there are some upload modules with a java front end. you need a
      server side module to receive and save it. they might work or you
      might be able to adapt them.<br>

      I am struggling to upload word documents to our drupal 7 site
      without having a form.<br>
      <br>
      It is easy when you have a form (just can use  file_save_upload
      api), but think of a situation you have excel sheet at server,
      where 100 file names are mentioned, and you want to get the files
      one by one.<br>
      <br>
      In that case, how do we upload a file, and after upload how do I
      get the FID.<br>
      <br>
      Is it really possible with existing framework?<br>
      <br>
      Best regards<br>
