I have stored a file HelloWorld.txt in App_Data.

My application is running locally but not on Server.

File Path is D:\MyProject\App_Data\HelloWorld.txt

How can I access?

Is this is the way?

var file= File.ReadAllText(@"D:\MyProject\App_Data\HelloWorld.txt");

(File is on my disk but not on server)

or is there any other way?

I cannot use server.Mappath(); because my file is not on server.

Server.MapPath is very handy. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6582904/what-is-the-best-way-to-read-in-a-text-file-from-the-server-in-asp-net-mvc – Trey Mack Sep 02 '15 at 18:39
