Ok, now it's clear for me (and working):
- You said Fields where you mean Files
- Files don't work unless you get fields first. I.e.:

      TRY PRINT "<p>Archivos.Count=" & CString(Request.Files.Count)
      TRY PRINT "<p>Archivos[0]=" & Request.Files["filename"]

Doesn't work, but this other code works as a charm:
     TRY PRINT "<p>Campos=" & Request.Fields.Count
     TRY PRINT "<p>Campos[filename]=" & Request[Request.Fields[0]]

      TRY PRINT "<p>Archivos.Count=" & CString(Request.Files.Count)
      TRY PRINT "<p>Archivos[0]=" & Request.Files["filename"]

Maybe it's a logical behaviour, but maybe for people like me who are not too
smart that's something to document somewhere ;-)
