Answer 2

 if you want to save file try following code snippet

 HttpPostedFile file = Request.Files["myFile"];

    //check file was submitted
    if (file != null && file.ContentLength > 0)
    {
        string fname = Path.GetFileName(file.FileName);
        file.SaveAs(Server.MapPath(Path.Combine("~/App_Data/", fname)));
    }

How TO Convert to stream,

     HttpPostedFile file = Request.Files["myFile"];
var FileLen = file .ContentLength;
   byte[] input = new byte[FileLen];
  System.IO.Stream MyStream;
   // Initialize the stream.
   MyStream = file .InputStream;

   // Read the file into the byte array.
   MyStream.Read(input, 0, FileLen);
