    Hi haris,

    When you upload your document by programmatically, it is difficult to deal with your field with out of box. So, you can create an event handle to change your field with document information panel field.

    public override void ItemUpdating(SPItemEventProperties properties)
           {
               properties.AfterProperties["    Title"] = "test";
               base.ItemUpdating(properties);
           }

    you can refer to the following link.

    Thanks,

    Meta-data have to be stored into a Hashtable

    HashTable MetaDataTable = new HashTable();
    MetaDataTable.Add(“column name”, “value”);

    SPFile currentFile = files.Add(url, fStream, MetaDataTable, true);

    Success is a slow rider, it requires a lot of time, I need pace in life, so left success and moved ahead.
