Hi, in general you cannot put the upload form inside another form. It works independently. So you need to put the shortcode inside the page in a different place, not inside Contact Form 7.
If you want to include additional user fields together with the uploaded files, you do not need Contact Form 7. WordPress File Upload plugin allows to add custom user fields. Here is a link with instructions.

Hi Nickolas,
Thank you so much for your reply.
In following the instructions, I used the following but these fields show up just as the code not as input fields. Can you please tell me how to enter the code correctly from beginning to end, as it looks like I may not have understood what the instructions were saying to actually type into the page editor.
userdatalabel=”Your name|r:1”
userdatalabel=”Your phone|s:left|r:1”
userdatalabel=”Your email|s:left|r:1”
userdatalabel=”Your city|s:left|r:1”
userdatalabel=”Project last name|s:left|r:1”
userdatalabel=”Your comments/questions|t:multitext|s:left|r:1”
userdatalabel=”Client’s comments/questions|t:multitext|s:left|r:1”
Hi, you can use the visual editor of the shortcode to configure the fields easily. Here is an article explaining how to invoke the visual editor.
When you open it, go to Additional Fields tab. There you will see the options for the user fields.
