  Hi Lokesh,
  
  If you want to upload an exsiting document you will have to use: _setFile()
  
  For more Details: http://sahi.co.in/w/_setFile
  
  Let me know if you face any problem.

  Hi Sumitra,
  
  Even I have used the same statement but file is not attaching, the below statements I have used,
  
  _setFile(_file("versionFile"), "C:\\Users\\lokeshk\\Desktop\\Test Documents\\Document Test 5.docx");
  _click(_button("Add"));
  
  Thanks,
  Lokesh.

  Hi Lokesh,
  
  _setFile works in a round about way. It is not handled at the browser level. It is handled at the proxy. So you will not see the file input box being populated with your desired filename. But when the form is submitted, the proxy will add the correct file to the request before it sends it to your web server. But if there are javascript checks before form submit to see if the filename is non-empty, then the script will not work as desired.
  
  If there are javascript validations on the file field, you can try this hack. Before submitting the file, change the field’s type to “text”, and then set its value.
  
  In you case,
  

  // set the file
      _setFile(_file("versionFile"), "C:\\Users\\lokeshk\\Desktop\\Test Documents\\Document Test 5.docx");
         // Change the "type" attribute of file field
      if (_isIE()){
          _call(_file("versionFile").outerHTML = _file("versionFile").outerHTML.replace(/type=file/, "type=text"));
      }else{
          _call(_file("versionFile").type = "text");
      }
          // Set the value into the textbox
      _setValue(_textbox("file"), "C:\\Users\\lokeshk\\Desktop\\Test Documents\\Document Test 5.docx");
  

  
  Let me know if this solves your issue.
