SecurityException when use DirectoryInfo???

Question

I get the following exception when run the code below. Why is that? CODE: DirectoryInfo dirInfo = new DirectoryInfo("D:\test"); EXCEPTION: An unhandled exception of type 'System.Security.SecurityException' occurred in mscorlib.dll Additional information: Request for the permission of type System.Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission, mscorlib, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089 failed.

Thanks I've found the problem. I was running the program from a network drive which for some reason VS. NET doesn't trust. Regards Thomas Fogh

Hi Can you try this instead? try { DirectoryInfo dirInfo = new DirectoryInfo(@D:	est); } catch (Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.Message); } Keep me updated whether you can get it work! Cheers.
