Hi,
any help would be appreciated: I am new to vb.net and security issues.

I need to dynamically create folders through asp.net on the server from which the asp.net pages are being provided.

I have tried the fololowing:

strServerDocumentStoragePath = "\\tta_devtest\IntranetDocument\"

Dim di As System.IO.DirectoryInfo = System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory("strServerDocu mentStoragePath" & strNewFolderName)

error I get:
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path "__" is denied. at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String str) at System.IO.Directory.InternalCreateDirectory(String fullPath, String path) at System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(String path) at Intranet.Team_AddFolder1.CreateNewFolder(String strPath, String strNewFolderName) in \\Tta_devtest\C\Inetpub\wwwroot\Team_AddFolder.asp x.vb:line 141

That is fine.
Mistakes are human nature.
