Why I can not list the virtual directory?

[david]

I basically use the following code to display the directory and file names in
the WWWROOT, but can not show the virtual directory.
----
Dim path As String = Server.MapPath( x)
Dim di As DirectoryInfo = New DirectoryInfo(p ath)
Listing.DataSou rce = di.GetFileSyste mInfos()
Listing.DataBin d()
----
Anyone can help me about how to list the virtual directory.

Thanks

Dim path As String = Server.MapPath( "~") ' or "/" if you want the site root
Listing.DataSou rce = Directory.GetDi rectories(path)
Listing.DataBin d()

A Virtual Directory is a name not a physical location. The physical location
of your Virtual Directory can be anywhere on your hard drive. So the
physical location of your Virtual Directory isn't always
c:\inetpub\wwwr oot\virtualdire ctoryname

If you need to know the physical directories of all your IIS Virtual
Directories, look at the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACH INE\SYSTEM\Cont rolSet001\Servi ces\W3SVC\Param eters\Virtual
Roots

In
Dim path As String = Server.MapPath( x),
the x is relative path root. It works for real directory path within wwwroot.

Thank you both of you.
I just created the virtual directory from IIS. If I set the property of
directory browsing, I can directly access to the directory virtually and get
anything I want from IE without my form based authentication. Now I try to
access it programatically without that setting and list the directory tree.
It works for others (not virtual one).
