Errors on ..ServerVariables

[tshad]

Why is
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH"]
giving me the following message:

C:\VSProjects\NewHires\NewHire.cs(227):
'System.Web.HttpRequest.ServerVariables' denotes a 'property' where a
'method' was expected

I have used this is in other projects without any problems.

Here is my using section - am I missing anything there?

using System;
using System.Data;
using System.IO;
using ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.Zip;
using ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.Checksums;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Web.Services;
using MyFunctions;
using System.Collections;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.SessionState;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;

Thanks,

Tom

many of these items have their own properties on the Request object, that are
a lot easier to access that way, e.g.

HttpContext.Current.Request.PhysicalApplicationPath ;

Why is
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH"­]
giving me the following message:

C:\VSProjects\NewHires\NewHire.cs(227):
'System.Web.HttpRequest.ServerVariables' denotes a 'property' where a
'method' was expected

Maybe you forgot a parentheses after .ToString()? Usually this error
is about ( ) [ ]

System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH"­].ToString()
