Hi, I've read thru a few of the threads about this topic and haven't found anything quite like I'm experiencing. I'm not even sure if this is possible:

Can I do the following:

Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(Server.MapPath( "http://www.mycompany.ca/folder/subfolder/"))

They both live on the same server (as the page requesting the content of that folder). However it is a private site and therefore requires an absolute path, or does it?

Hi there,

You cannot use the MapPath method to get the location of another site. All you can pass to MapPath is a virtual path within your application. Something like "MyFolder/MyFile.asp" or "/MyFolder/MyFile".

Passing an http address to this method will not work.

Cheers,

Imar

Thank you Imar, IS there a method to doing this?

AFAIK, there isn't. If you know the structure of the other site, you could use Server.MapPath to get the path of the current site, and then use replace to change the staring path of the file.

Pretty messy, but it might work.

What are your requirements for this functionality? What are you using it for?
