Form upload queries

Question

I am a newbie and have a requirement to upload ~2GB files via form upload.

I am unsure whether the 2GB file will be received as a whole on the "action URL" - (http://localhost:49980/videoupload.aspx) page or will it be received in parts/chunks?

Thanks in advance for clarifying!

Firstly Increasing the Maximum Upload Size

The 4MB default is set in machine.config, but you can override it in you web.config. For instance, to expand the upload limit to 20MB, you'd do this:
