Path

I have written a web page where if a user clicks a button, a xml file is
generated and saved. I want to save the file in the folder that my project
is in. I can specify to save the file in
"c:\inetpub\wwwroot\folder\bin\test.xml", but I want to use the relative path
to specify the place to save it. How do I do this?

string strFullFileName = Server.MapPath ("test.xml"); //should get you the
full file path and name in the current directory
