How to attach/delete/upload files to SharePoint List Item using Object Model

I have one requirement in which I need to develop a web part in which users can upload multiple documents to SharePoint List Item and they can see all uploaded files into data grid control, they also need facility for user to delete selected files, add new files from same control and also they can download files.

Here in this post, I am writing code for each functionality as per my requirements.

Code of Deleting attachment from SharePoint list item :


 private void DeleteAttachment(int NodeID, String strFileName)
    {
        try
        {
            SPContext.Current.Web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;

            SPListItem delItem = lstAudit.GetItemById(NodeID);
            SPAttachmentCollection atCol = delItem.Attachments;
            foreach (string strDelfileName in atCol)
            {
                if (strDelfileName == strFileName)
                {
                    atCol.Delete(strDelfileName);
                    delItem.Update();
                    lstAudit.Update();

                    return;
                }
            }

        }
        catch (Exception eDel)
        {
            string errDel = eDel.Message;
        }
    }


Code for Downloading attachment from SharePoint List Item :


private void DownloadAttachment(string FileName)
    {
        try
        {
            string AttachmentURL = string.Empty;
            AttachmentURL = FileName;
            string strName = AttachmentURL.Substring(AttachmentURL.LastIndexOf("/") + 1);
            string sbURL = AttachmentURL.Trim();
            System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.ContentEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.Default;
            Response.AppendHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" + strName);
            Response.AppendHeader("Pragma", "cache");
            Response.AppendHeader("Cache-control", "private");
            Response.WriteFile(sbURL);
            Response.End();
        }
        catch (Exception eDwn)
        {
            Response.Write(eDwn.Message);
        }
    }

Code of Uploading Document to SharePoint List Item :

protected void btnUpload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        try
        {
            string fileName = "";
            string strExtensionName = "";

            fileName = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(FileUpload.PostedFile.FileName);

            if (fileName != "")
            {
                strExtensionName = fileName.Substring(fileName.IndexOf(".") + 1);
                if (strExtensionName.Equals("webpart") || strExtensionName.Equals("dll") || strExtensionName.Equals("bat") || strExtensionName.Equals("exe"))
                {
                    lblMessage.Visible = true;
                    lblMessage.Text = "Invalid fileName!!";
                }
                else
                {
                    string _fileTime = DateTime.Now.ToFileTime().ToString();

                    string _fileorgPath = System.IO.Path.GetFullPath(FileUpload.PostedFile.FileName);

                    if (txtFileName.Text.Trim().Length > 0)
                    {
                        fileName = fileName.Replace(fileName.Substring(fileName.LastIndexOf("\\") + 1), txtFileName.Text) + "." + strExtensionName;
                    }
                    string _newfilePath = _fileTime + "~" + fileName;

                    string tempFolder = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("TEMP");

                  
                    string _filepath = tempFolder + _newfilePath;
                  
                    FileUpload.PostedFile.SaveAs(_filepath);

                    AddRow(fileName, _filepath, 0, true);
                }
            }
            else
            {

                lblMessage.Visible = true;
                lblMessage.Text = "Please Selct file Name";

            }

        }
        catch (Exception Ex)
        {
            Response.Write(Ex.Message);
        }

    }
