Parameters

address

A string that specifies the URI to receive the data. [Edit]

Returns

A System.IO.Stream used to write data to the resource. [Edit]

Exceptions

Type	Reason
System.Net.WebException	The absolute URI is not valid. -or- An error occurred while opening the stream. [Edit]

Remarks

This method is equivalent to WebClient.OpenWrite(string)(address, "POST").

If the WebClient.BaseAddress property of the current instance is not string.Empty, address is combined with WebClient.BaseAddress to form the absolute URI of the requested data. If the WebClient.BaseAddress property of the current instance is string.Empty, address is required to be the absolute URI of the requested data. If the WebClient.QueryString property of the current instance is not string.Empty, it is appended to address.

Note: The underlying request is made with the POST method.
