Folder outside the root

[jteupep]

Hi just want to ask, if there's a folder outside the root that can be storage for my pdf files and will not be accessible thru http but only thru physical path declared on my asp.net code.

Please advise also if this will have a cost implication.

Hi,
DASP creates a protected folder for each account by default named _database that can be used.
As an example I have placed a PDF file in my _database folder just now:
http://msftwise.com/_database/CShotkeys.pdf

You can do more with it as there are ways to protect files but as you can see that PDF file can not be accessed.
Primarily that folder is intended for flatfile databases but I use it for many things.
All the best,
Mark

you can also stick it in the _appData folder.
