Allowing a VB app to be accessed from the internet

[taupirho]

Hi, I have developed a VB 6 app that uses OLEDB and the MS text driver to read text files from the local hard drive by using code like:- SELECT * from C:\MYDATA\MYDATAFILE.CSV. I want to put the app onto the web. I know that you can create an IIS application using VB6 to do this. However, I also want the text files to reside and be accessed from the server, not the users local machine. How do I do this?

i would wrap the code up in an ActiveX DLL. Then you will be able to call the DLL from ASP (you must register the DLL on the IIS machine).
