I'm new to asp and don't know much about it.

Has anybody of you lot done some VB Scripting inside an ASP.

I've written the following piece of code in VB and it works ok but when I transfer it to the ASP it falls over in actual fact it doesn't even compile.

VB Code that works looks like this

Option Explicit

Private Sub Command1_Click()

Static runNo As Integer

'Declare a filename variable
Dim fileName As String
fileName = "C:\\tempfile.txt"
'Open the fileName to be written to
Open fileName For Output As #1
Lock #1, 1
runNo = runNo + 1

Print #1, "Hello World - Look I'm writing to a file - " + CStr(runNo)

Unlock #1, 1 ' Unlock the file
Close #1 ' Close the file

End Sub


I transferred the above code to my ASP document and placed it within the head and /head sections but it doesn't work any ideas?

Mant thanks in advance

Raj,

I'm not sure but.... I suspect you cannot open files in ASP this way. Imagine if this was Client Code... It could be a big security leak!!
