I completely forgot about that. However, my problem still persists
cause I am not using Models.FileField but Forms.FileField.

Your solution will work for models but I am using forms and I m not
sure if instance of form has similar method such as get_FOO_filename.

Sorry i wasnt really clear before and I hope someone here can help me
again.

Thanks

Ronald
