Novice-level Questions: I want to have a user execute an ASP that reads or writes to a file, but I don't want the user to have direct access to it. Putting the file into a subdirectory that is password-protected seems to keep the ASP file from accessing it also.

The only way you can do that is restricting IIS read permission.

All the newer accounts have a _database directory, this directory do not have IIS read permission.

If you do not have this directory in your file structure, email support.

Thanks, that's exactly what I needed to know. I told you it was a novice-level question.
