Hi there,



I am at a lost here. I have done numerous research and it looks like relatively straight forward to open a text file and read from it.



I kept getting this error :



Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a003e'

Input past end of file

listings.asp, line 42 ===>strHTML = objFile.Readline



Does anyone have any suggestion where did it go wrong ?? Appreciate any help.

Replace;



With



Do While Not objFile.AtEndOfStream

strHTML = objFile.ReadLine & "<br>"

Loop

objFile.Close



Response.Write strHTML

Hi Steve,



Thank you. I don't get this Input past end of file error now. I think I was getting this error because it has to do with how I specify where this "c:\test.txt" test file is located.



the OpenTextFile syntax requires a full path and filename.



Full physical path where my asp file resides :

c:\\Web\Virtual Websites\biz\bh_TEST\test.asp



Logical web site path : 192.168.1.237/bh_TEST/test.asp">192.168.1.237/bh_TEST/test.asp



When I declare "c:\test.txt" as path for the OpenTextFile - where should this file physically resides in 1) c:\\test.txt or 2) c:\\web\Virtual Websites\biz ???



To test, I have the "test.txt" in -

c:\\web\Virtual Websites\test.txt

c:\\web\Virtual Websites\biz\test.txt

c:\\web\Virtual Websites\biz\bh_TEST\test.txt



My results after executing codes return "".



Thank you.

Should actually be;



strPath = Server.MapPath("c:\test.txt")
