I don't understand. Is this a call that only works when it wants. I have the stupidest problem. I have a page that displays server.mappath and all the files in the dir. It works great on my local machine(XP) but when I upload it to my 2000 server it only partially works. I can display server.mappath in a label and the path is correct yet it won't display files in the folder on my page. Though directory browsing is off I gave ASP.Net full controll to the folder. What the he?? This is a bunch of cr?p, I can figure it out. Any thoughts or experience with this problem, or am I missing something stupid. Thanks in advance.
