I created a dll to convert .tif file to .jpg file. This dll works when I
tested in VB environment(The dll is at my local machine and the .tif file is
at the romote server). However, it doesn't work when I tested it via ASP(my
machine as web-server, the .tif file is at the remote server). If it is true
that Asp will look at the local web-server's file system only, then, I have
to put the all .tif files that I need into my local machine??? In the
reality, the web-server and the data-server are not necessary locate at the
same place. Are there any ways to get around with this. Thans for any
suggestions!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why don't you write a VB-FTP component that will ftp the .tif from
the remote machine and then convert it to .jpg on the webserver.

Map a drive letter on the WWW server to a network share located on the data
server.
(eg net use m: \\dataserver\tifFileShare\
Make sure that the IUSR_<www> account has sufficient permissions to read the
files on the data server.
Cheers
