Trint,

There really isn't a direct conversion. If you want the local path on
the web server, then use the MapPath method on the HttpServerUtility class
(exposed through the Page on the Server property) to find it. You can get
the local directory of the root directory for the web application with:

// Get the local path.
string localPath = Server.MapPath("/");

You can also use the ApplicationPath, CurrentExecutionFilePath,
FilePath, Path, PhysicalApplicationPath, PhysicalPath properties on the
HttpRequest (exposed through the Request property) for other path
information related to the request.

I would recommending figuring out which would suit your needs, and then
use one of those.

Hope this helps.

Trint,

Are you actually running this in the context of ASP.NET?

Is cool3.swf in the root of the application directory or in a sub directory.
My guess is that you have the wrong path. Response.Write(localPath) and I
bet you find your issue.
