Hello Gerry

Thanks for the tip. I did just that because when the error message said
file
not found. But out of curiousity if I did use web.config what section would
I put
that file system path in?

web.config :

<appSettings>
<add key="ReportFolder" value="c:\DotNetAppl\NetAppl\rptFolder\" />
</appSettings>


in your project : reference System.Configuration
in your code :
using System.Configuration;
. . .
string ReportFolder = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings ["ReportFolder"];
. . .
reportPath = ReportFolder + "Report1.rpt ";
