Capture Mappath to Variable

[PenguinHead]

What is the correct syntax to capture the value from Server.Mappath to a variable?

I'm a newbie to ASP and I may be overlooking something very simple. This is how I am trying to capture the current URL but it gives me the following error.

My Code:
[tt]Set sPath = Server.Mappath("fm_include.asp")[tt]

My Error:
[tt]Object required: '[string: "M:\web\users\V025U37"]'[tt]

Thanks in advance.

Response.Write Request.ServerVariables("Server_Name") & Request.ServerVariables("URL")

Ah! Thank you sir.

The error in your above code is that your trying to use "Set" when you are assigning a string, not an object. Set is only used for object reference assignments.

[s]Set [/s]sPath = Server.Mappath("fm_include.asp")

Additionally, if you want the path for the file that is executing you could also use a combination of Server.MapPath() and Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME").
