No, you can't access network resources from inside a service, unless the service is running as a network/domain user. This is a security measure. Also, network 'drives' are only mappings in your current user session, and services(IIS) run in their own session, so your "drives" simply don't exist... You'll need to use UNC pathing... -- Derek _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
