File Operations in ASP
Written by Eric Smith, Northstar Computer Systems LLC
If you need to read or write to or from a file from within your ASP application, you can do this with the FileSystemObject. This series of objects wraps the most commonly used file functions in an easy-to-use object format. Here's an example that reads a file and prints it out to the web browser:
Dim objFSO ' As Scripting.FileSystemObject
Dim objStream ' As Scripting.TextStream
Const ForReading = 1
Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objStream = objFSO.OpenTextFile("C:\Autoexec.bat", ForReading)
Response.Write objStream.ReadAll
objStream.Close
Set objFSO = Nothing
There are quite a few more objects and ways you can read and write files. Refer to your MSDN Library for more information on each object.
