I am going to guess that you have done a fairly common thing: you have
assumed that a user can send a file as easy as they send a filename to a web
site. This is a very common mistake.
If you have allowed the user to browse for a file name, or to type one in,
that's cool. However, you also have to allow them to upload it to your web
server from your client, and not try to have the ASP.Net app just "open" the
file. Of course this works just fine if you are running the app on your
machine, because the file is on your machine, but it won't work on a web
server.
I'm guessing at the nature of your problem from the description you gave.
If I guessed wrong, and you'd like further help, please post code to
illustrate the problem.
