File upload control on a custom page in a WSS 3.0 site

Question

I am designing a custom page(inheriting from a custom master page) in one of my WSS 3.0 website. I am displaying all the files in a document library in a data-view web part.

Now, on the same page we need to provide provision to user for uploading files to this document library. There are few custom columns also in the document library for which we expect user to input values while uploading any file. Can anybody suggest the best approach for this requirement ?

We are looking for a code less (out of the box) solution for the problem.

Thanks in advance.

Similar question: how to upload file to sharepoint doc library via c# application?

Look at this article in msdn: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms454491.aspx which states how to store file in sharepoint.

Basically, its similar to how you do in asp.net but with some provision related to content types/column values etc. You can handle it easily.

Let me know if you need more help.
