Hi hdpark,

Server.MapPath maps a virtual file or folder to a physical one. For example, if you have a folder called UserFiles at the root of your web site, and your web site is located at e:\web\myaccount\htdocs, then Server.MapPath should return e:\web\myaccount\htdocs\UserFiles
What do you get when you use Server.MapPath and output its return value on a label control? E.g.:

Label1.Text = Server.MapPath("UserFiles")

Hi Imar,
I needed \(back slash) after UserFiles like this.
FileUpload1.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("UserFiles\") & FileUpload1.FileName)

Thanks for your kind help.

I have another question about DropDownList.
I used it from your codes in Chapter 6 as this: lstBlogEntry.SelectedIndex = -1
When I enter this routine, "-1" brings 1st selection from data. I want to bring specific value (it is in Public pubVars.pubBlogID) and set this value to this DropDownList. I tried it like these two:
1. lstBlogEntry.SelectedIndex = Convert.ToInt32(pubVars.pubBlogID)
2. lstBlogEntry.SelectedValue = Convert.ToInt32(pubVars.pubBlogID)

But I do not have right result. Can you please advise me about this?
I really appreciate your kind help always.

Thanks,

Hi there,

Can you explain your problem in more detail? I have no idea what you're talking about.

Maybe you can open a new thread for it? If it's related to the Instant Result book, post it here, otherwise please select an appropriate other category here at p2p.wrox.com

Cheers,

Imar
