Jan 14, 2010How do I determine a mapped drive's actual path?
So if I have a mapped drive on a machine called "Z" how can I using .NET determine the machine and path for the mapped folder?
The code can assume it's running on the machine with the mapped drive.
I looked at Path, Directory, FileInfo objects, but can't seem to find anything.
I also looked for existing questions, but could not find what I'm looking for.
Determine Whether File Path Is Local Or Remote?
May 9, 2011I am looking for a way to determine whether a file spec that I provide is local or remote. I am using VB2008. I have a VB6 app that does this by using the PathIsNetworkPath API call, but I am hoping that I can use the .NET framework instead with VB2008. Google gives lots of results on how to determine if a network path is available, but not specifically what I want.

View 2 RepliesInterface And Graphics :: Drawing Dotted Path Lines, With Even Dots Along The Path Line?
Apr 13, 2012Problem drawing dotted path lines, with even dots along the path line.I want to draw a path line that can be any shape (square, round, outline etc), and along this path line I want even dots to appear.
I also want to be able to resize the shape (as in the example attached)This is very easy to do using "DrawPath" and defining points for the path and using a pen defined as dots.The problem I have is I want the dots to be evenly placed along the path, on any shape or size I draw.In the example I have created, I create a square with 4 points and draw a dotted path.There are 2 buttons that allows me to resize the square (larger or smaller) this helps show the problem more clearly.
The path starts at the top left corner and finishes back at the top left corner, the dots are evenly placed along the path, except the final dots at the end of the path. (Sometimes the dots are even and other times they are not even).The shapes I want to draw can be any size and any shape, but I have used a square in this example to show the problem I have. point me in the direction I need to go that allows me to draw the dots and give the impression that they are even all along the path, for all shapes and sizes.
In the pictures below if you change the size of the shape, one will have even looking dots, the other will not.

Access A File Using Relative Path Or Virtual Path?
May 22, 2012I am trying to read and display a file using MapPath as follows :
Response.ContentType = "Application/pdf"
Dim FilePath As String = MapPath("../Document/123.pdf")
Response.WriteFile(FilePath)
Response.End()
This procedure will work fine and display in the browser. However, if I save the file to C:Document123.pdf, how can I access this file using relative path in MapPath function. Is there an option to access the file which is saved out of IIS server? I am using vb.net 2003.
Convert Unix File Path To Windows Path?
Jun 14, 2012I'm using acrobat that returns unix paths instead of windows path's. So im wondering if there is a way in vb.net to convert the path to windows path.
i tried using:
docs(i) = javaScriptObj.path().ToString.Replace("/", "").Substring(1)
position = docs(i).IndexOf("")
docs(i) = docs(i).Substring(0, position) + ":" + docs(i).Substring(position + 1)
this only works on local files, but fails when im starting to use network drives.

ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user. To grant ASP.NET write access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.But when I add: <identity impersonate="true"/ to web.config I get the following error when my application trys to open a DB to read it:
