Server.MapPath from a vb class

[MattB]

I've used this a bit from codebehind with no problems, but now I'm
having some issues when I try to use it from a vb class in my application.
Looking in help, it looks like I need to do something like this:

dim Server As HttpServerUtili ty
Dim path As String = Server.MapPath( "myfile.txt ")

----

But any time I use that Server variable I get a null refrence exception.
What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

You have to use httpcontext to get the server object when you are on a
class. Hope this helps

Don't write "dim Server As HttpServerUtili ty"
just
Dim path As String = Server.MapPath( "myfile.txt ")

Yep. HttpContext.Cur rent to be exact. Thanks!
