Hello hope any can help me. Im a VB programmer recently am migrating to ASP.NET, using VB. now my question is

why does the syntax directory.exists(path) returns false when my path points to a mapped directory?

also im using ms visual studio 2003 and im planning to upgrade to VS 2005, i can't install it, it gets errors...

help appreciated

Reese_Kirsten:
Need more information, it is not clear what you are trying to do. Could you send the actual statement and the generated error message?
Is the mapped drive to a virtual directory or what?

ah ok... i have a mapped drive on my computer say for example x: to a folder in another PC.

directory.exists("x:") and file.exists("x:\testfile.txt") both returns false.

while if i run it on a normal windows application both command returns true.
