physical path to virtual path under virtual directory

[Guest]

Best way I can think to describe this is through an example. I have a
virtual directory, let's call it "MyVirtualDirectory" that maps to
\\MyServer\Shared.

I have a path that is \\MyServer\Shared\SomeDirectory\SomeFile.txt.

I need to convert this path to a virtual path with the virtual directory
name. The result I'm after would be:

MyVirtualDirectory\SomeDirectory\SomeFile.txt

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What about

myPhysicalPath.Replace(Request.MapPath(Request.ApplicationPath), "");

?

Sorry, but that won't do. My web site can have one or more virtual
directories which are mapped to file storage locations. I need the path to
have the name of the virtual directory under which the file lives as the
first part of the path. The site itself is not a virtual directory.

Thanks

What about

myPhysicalPath.Replace(Request.MapPath(Request.ApplicationPath), "");

?

My previous reply was a little off. The site 'can be' under a virtual
directory but I'm not interested in that path. I'm interested in the virtual
directories 'within' the site.

What about

myPhysicalPath.Replace(Request.MapPath(Request.ApplicationPath), "");

?

You can't tell the virtual directory by the physical path.

But, if you know the list of all your virtual directories, you can loop
through the list and use the MapPath method to match virtual and physical
directories.
