Setting up a simple file downloading system with VBScript and ASP is no sweat. This system can be tested by downloading a classic ASP app
The primary use for a system like this is to allow downloading of any TEXT based file that would normally be served via a client's browser and be unable to be downloaded. This system works great when setting up downloads for files with the following extensions: *.txt, *.htm, *.html or *.asp . This system won't work to serve binary files such as images.
A secondary use is to allow download access to directories outside the public server space or a hidden directory within the website. This system can also be used in conjunction with the fileupload class to let users
This article is number three in a series of articles I wrote about uploading and displaying binary data with ASP. The first article was about Uploading binary data to the database, second was on Displaying binary data from the database and the third one ( this one ) is going to be on 'Uploading files to the server hard disk
This short example will allow you to dynamically create "static" html documents from an Access data on your web server using Active Server Pages. Basically after reading the contents of the db, instead of writing output to the browser it is written to the server.

The first article was about Uploading binary data to the database, second was on Displaying binary data from the database and the third one ( this one ) is going to be on 'Uploading files to the server hard disk using pure ASP'.
This article is first of a series of articles about working with drives, folders and files using ASP. In this article we'll learn how to get hold of Drives collection which FileSystemObject provides us, then we'll use this handle to display a list of all drives connected to our computer with their detailed info. These drives may be fixed hard disks, removable drives like floppy drives, CD-ROM drives or even network drives. We'll then use the handle to a drive to access root folder for that drive and then display all the sub folders and files in that drive. We'll build our application in such a way that we can move around different drives and folders and read different files.
