Hollo,
Can anybody tell me if I can write a web application using:
Imports System.IO

and have a folder in the server where files can be read from or where files
can be created. Im just talking about text files.

Thanks
Willem
 
Sure, but you have to add appropriate permissions (ACLs) to the target
folder since IIS has very limited rights.
 
Yes. Just make sure you give your ASP.NET process the correct
permissions on that folder.
 
Just a little addition. Do not forget about security. Make sure that ASP.NET
application could not change any .aspx source file or get access to
protected resources.
