Downloading file from Web Server to Client

[cbanks]

I have an application that creates an RTF file through a xslt template.
I thought that the WebClient Class was used for this purpose, so I
have the following code:
Dim myWebClient As New WebClient
Dim gblDefaultDirectory as String = "C:\mydocs"
Dim myWebResource = remoteUri + fileName
myWebClient.DownloadFile(myWebResource, gblDefaultDirectory &
"LabelList.rtf")

Instead of transfering the file from the server to my client, the
ASP.net application is looking for my gblDefaultDirectory on the
server. Am I missing something?


Thanks
Charles

WebClient is a simple HTTP client class. So far, this has nothing to do
with what you've describd ;-)

Dim myWebClient As New WebClient
Dim gblDefaultDirectory as String = "C:\mydocs"
Dim myWebResource = remoteUri + fileName
myWebClient.DownloadFile(myWebResource, gblDefaultDirectory &
"LabelList.rtf")

You used the API correctly... must be a server-side issue.
