I'm trying to open an autocad file on a shared folder but it fails with comexception saying file was not found, but file exists. Here's the code: ("filePath" is the path to the file and acApp is a reference to Autocad object.)

C#

if(File.Exists(filePath))
{
    acApp.Documents.Open(filePath);
}

note: i have denied all users access to my shared folder and just one user can open or modify this folder and its sub files.i have logged on this user before trying to open my dwg file.

Solution 1

If filepath is a variable then you should remove the quotes around it:

C#

if(File.Exists(filePath))
{
    acApp.Documents.Open(filePath);
}

If not then try mapping the share folder to a drive name instead of using the \\computername\sharefolder syntax.

Thanks, i have tried net.exe map p: \\servername\sharedfolder
but i have received this message :
"the syntax of this command is: NET [ACCOUNT | COMPUTER | CONFIG |...]".

i have tried net use instead of net.exe but i received a message like the above.

i have tried "net use \\servername\sharedfolder" finally however received this message : "The command completed successfully".but what does it mean?how can i get the map of my path?
