| You usually can't do something like that due to IIS permissions. If you could hackers etc would fill webserver HDD's just because they could.What you'l need to do to send the XLS file to the other server is come up with some "recieving" program / tool on the other server and "send" your XLS file to it. Two good things to research are 1. Setting up an FTP server on the destiation box, and FTP the file there.2. Do a search on 4guysfromrolla.com, 15seconds.com, or learnasp.com about ASP file uploading. You could build something that allows you to "POST" your XLS file to a webpage, and that webpage reads the XLS File and puts it in the right place on the destination PC. Not super easy, but I can tell you from experience this technique works well. |
