Edit a text file on a web site server

[tahu191]

I need to be able to edit a text file that's on a website server, here's how i'm attempting to read it:

Dim sr as StreamReader = new StreamReader("http://www.website.com/text.txt")

but this apparently doesn't allow a web link. any suggestions?

Assuming this is a web server that you own, couldn't you just use the UNC file path.

If this is not a web server that you own then I would be contacting the server admins and getting instructions from them.
