Hi,

I want to be able to read a directory, on a file server. So this isn't a webserver and it isn't a drive on the client PC. I know how to do read a directory on a webserver by using ASP. But I want to be able to read the content of a directory on a file server. Does anybody know how to do this from within a web application?
 
You can either map a drive to the file server and access the map drive letter or you can use the UNC path to get to the remote drive - you will need to share the drive in this case. UNC paths take the form \\myfileserver\mydir Mighty :)
 
I did know that. But can I use the file system object to read the files which are on this file server with a VBS which is runing on a webserver. So how to make a script that will run on a webserver and will display all the files which are in a directory of this file server?
