Ok i have a script that i have been working on for quite awhile and well its not working right i can't figure out how i would use Server.Mappath to show me all the file names from a URI. I have tried using a simple Directory Info but i get a Error "URI not supported" so i saw i can use Server.Mappath but how would i use this?

my code is Dim fs As FileStream =New FileStream("C:Documents and SettingsC100492DesktopDocssampleWSxmls" & GadgetName & ".xml", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
In the above code I have to change the phisical path(C:Document) with Server.mappath. let me know how to write the same code with Server.mappath. I have all xml files in my local application folder(folder name:XML).
I am trying to get get the path of a directory that I have a template file in. ie in asp.net I use
Dim path as string = Server.MapPath("~/Reports/")) and then once I have the Reports dir I can do this
Using r As StreamReader = New StreamReader(path & "Template.htm")
Dim line As String
[code]...
That works great in asp.net but now I need to do the same thing in a console app. I have tried the function path = GetFullPath("~/Reports/") and instead of getting the absolute path to the Reports dir it returns /bin/debug/reports which is wrong. The file Template.htm is not in that directory.
How can i use Server.MapPath in shared methos i tried something lile this [code]...

View 4 RepliesThis is my first post on the .Net Forums - I hope I don't break any rules in the first post,I'm trying to make a VB based .Net page return a file to the user from a location external to the website.The file itself is a software setup that needs to site outside the Web Directory, basically, the page needs to pick up this file and send it to the user when the page is loaded, I've done some research into the problem and it does seem that ASP .Net will not be able to let the user download files from outside the WebDirectory (in this case, WWWROOT).
Does anyone know if this can be done? I've pasted the code I'm playying about with below - but, I wouldn't be suprised if this is completely wrong

Scenario: I want to develop an application.The application should be able to connect to my remote server and download data to the local disk , while downloading it should check for new files and only download the new ones simultaneously creating the required(new) folders.
Problem: I have no idea how to compare the files in the server with the ones in the local disk.How to download only the new files from the server to the local disk?
What am thinking?: I want to sync the files in the local machine with the ones in the server. I am planning to use rsync for syncing but i have no idea how to use it with ASP.NET.

View 1 RepliesI'm doing a project where we are re-creating a very old system.The client wants the same base functionality and some improvements.One of the things I'm currently working on is the note-system. These are used as flags of some sort, but are also used as a comment field for some products or client profiles.In the old system you could write the text and save it like you would get in a .txt file. They want the new one to be able to do word formatting such as:
Different font sizes (Only some parts of the text)
Different font colours (Only some parts of the text)
Underlining of words
Bolding
Italics
Tab-spaces
Those are the specs they want. What I need to know is the following:
1) How do I do that?
2) Currently they store all these files on the server as text files and the database have paths that refers to each file. I want to be able to save a text file with that formatting to the HDD of the server like in the old system.
3) If possible I would like to save that text to the database with the formatting.

View 11 RepliesI have a Windows XP box that is showing vulnerable by a 3rd party scanner for MS08-070 in regards to four OCX files tied somehow to Visual Basic 6.0. However VB6 is not installed on this computer; attempts to download MS08-070 and patch doesn't work.I'm guessing there is a some other application that may have dropped these in my c:windowssystem32 folder. The file versions are older as compared to what MS08-070 say they should be so I'd like to get them patched/updated.Microsoft's recommendation in the article is to update the application on a machine that has the latest patches for VB6 and redistribute that application.
