Hi
I have made some code that creates a file for later use. The file just needs to me stored at a temporily place on the server. What do I write in my code if I want to save the file in a certain folder on the server? The file shoul dnot be save among the aspx files and the other web site content but in a folder that not should be accesiably from other than the website.

Assuming that your are creating the file in your application, just create a folder within the root directory of your website and write this code

File.WriteAllText("File Path", "File's Content");

Though I'm still confused how did generate a file without providing a path to save it?

Hi,

   Try this code,




and in code behind,

    string fileName = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(MyFile.PostedFile.FileName);
   string saveLocation = Server.MapPath("TempFiles" + "\\" + fileName);
     MyFile.PostedFile.SaveAs(saveLocation);

Regards,
Raaj
