Ok,
I've searched the web and newsgroups for a week now with no concrete
answer. Question: How, if possible, can you either navigate to or get a
listing of a directory to load on an asp page and then doubleclick or
hyperlink the files to execute locally. I have already tried the
file:///C:\.... approach, but that opens the whole pc to the user, which I
don't want to do. I'd like everything to stay within the web application as
far as directory browsing. Ideally, users will be given their own directory
either on C: or in inetpubs/wwwroot and a login ID will dictate which folder
they have access to (Folder name = UserID). I remember using the old Shell
command in VB desktop apps to call the application to open a specific file.
I will be supporting multiple file types that are opened by up to 6
different aplications in the folders. No C# code, VB only, the boss is a
numnutts over that, he's gonna be supporting it to some extent. Also, can
you create a folder in a directory using asp.net? I have never been asked
to create local directories by using a web page before. Any help
appreciated.
