Response.Redirect problem

I am trying to use Response.Redirect to navigate to a shared folder on another server. When I use the direct route, i.e. "F:\ReportData\blah blah blah" it works fine.

However, I will need to use the network name for it because it is part of our company Intranet. When I use the network share "\\pobnt378\ReportData\blah.htm" Response.Redirect preceeds it with a " which is the actual web location of that particular page and then appends the location I passed it. Naturally I get a "page not found" error.

Is there another way to navigate to a network shared folder to display a .htm file without using Response.Redirect?

Thanks in advance,
Dave
 
U have to get the html and then Response.Write with that html code. ________

Thanks shadow but I figured it out.
Actually, I was trying to do a response.redirect to a .htm file on network shared folder. I needed to tell the redirect that this was a file and not a URL to prevent the reformatting of it. Therefore, I had to make sure the path looked like:
file:\\\pobnt378\ReportData\blah.htm

This works perfectly.
