Could Not Find Part of a Path

[Tom]

I am trying to access a file in .NET code behind using a
StreamREader:

StreamReader oTextFile = new StreamReader("\ \s1
\\Dest\\123.asp ");

But when I run the code, I get this error.

Could not find a part of the path "C:\fhlbcin snp1
\Destination\10 0597\1622686.as p".
Note: The directory is not shared but is accessible from
the Start|Run command.

Can anyone advise??

Tom,

You might want to use the full path of the file you are using. The
string you have now evaluates to:

\s1\Dest\123.as p

Which means the root of the drive the file is on, then the path. It
might not be exactly what you are looking for. Also, is s1 supposed to be a
machine name, or a directory name? If it is a UNC name, then you have to
use:

"\\\\s1\\Dest\\ 123.asp"

or

@"\\s1\Dest\123 .asp"

Hope this helps.
