I would suspect that the Event.SELECT listener is begin fired even if no file
is selected and that the object file_txt still contains the file name from the
previous action, so it uploads that file again. try setting file_txt.text=""
before assigning it file.name.

Thanks for your reply ... i Have tried your suggestion but it's not the
solution ... Until and Up to i will not remove file name from file reference
object ,it will again upload it ... But i don't know how to remove file name
from file object ...
