Is it possible for an ASP page to read a server side file?

It is probably possible although there isn't much need for it.

Have a plan for something later on IF I can find a way to do this.

Meanwhile, will look for it elsewhere.

Thanks,

Not looking for ASP.Net Code... This needs to be a purely \".ASP\" file on a web page.

One use might be to display the contents of a \"hidden\" file to only \"authorized\" users.

...confused... you mean you need your ASP page to read from a file on the server it's stored on? Check out FileSystemObject. If it's on a remote server you have to instantiate an HTTP connection to that machine.
