Retrieving data from a share drive

123 New Member
I am currently making an ASP.Net application that uses SQL to pull data from a database and displays the information from the db on the page. However, I've been asked to pull information from a share drive on my network containing more information. However, I was told that VB will allow me to retrieve this data in the share drive, but I am not sure how to go about it? I've tried making a vitural directory on my IIS (my computer is a web server for testing), but failed.

See I am trying to pull information on the state of projects and allow the user to go to that project folder, not just one document in that folder.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I figured it out, I've decided just to create a database with the info and link it to this folder.

Thanks.
