Question

I have a drop down list on my page & want the list items to be folders from a local directory on the web server… ie….

T:\Forms
T:\Manuals
T:\Software

Here is my code so far…

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo("C:/");
        DirectoryInfo[] dirArray = di.GetDirectories();
        DropDownList1.DataSource = dirArray;
        foreach (DirectoryInfo i in dirArray)
        {
            DropDownList1.DataTextField = i.FullName;
            DropDownList1.DataValueField = i.FullName;
        }
    }

SOLVED

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo("C:/");

        DropDownList1.DataSource = di.GetDirectories();

        DropDownList1.DataBind();

        foreach (DirectoryInfo i in di.GetDirectories())
        {
            DropDownList1.DataTextField = i.FullName;
        }

    }

Check out the

System.IO.DirectoryInfo

and

System.IO.FileInfo

classes. Obviously you will only be able to read the filesystem of the web server
