Hi all

I would like to reference a file in a class in the 'App_Code' folder and I
wanted to use the server.MapPath property

How can I do that?

Samuel
 
A File Path

I want to stae the path of a datbase (.mdb) file but instead of stating the
absolute path I want to state the relative path so I wanted to use the
server.Mappath property

Thank you,
Samuel
 
Samuel,

It is not clear at all what you are asking for. Can you give an example in
pseudo code?

I simply want to create a connection string using the server.mappath to a
database file that resides in a sub folder in the website

It simply doesn't work (the class is under the 'App_Code' folder)

It does. Likely something is not 100% right on your side. You can make this
thread more productive if you tell what you pass to the method, what you
expect and what you get.
