VB'ers,

I have an ActiveX control that is embedded in a web page. I am using Personal Web Server for testing purposes. Upon clicking a button on my control, I would like it to open a file for output. The file to be opened resides on the server at location "c:\webshare\wwwroot\mypage.html". When I test the control in a web page, it cannot find the file path. I have tested the ActiveX control with a Standard EXE and it has no problems. Please help!

Best Regards,

Charles Rohner

Try Server.mappath("C:\whatever")

I think that may work.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it did not work. There is no Server object in Visual Basic 6.0 (at least not one that I could find).
