What does Server.MapPath do?..

Answer / kishore maddineni

The MapPath method maps a relative or virtual path to a
physical path. This method does not check for the validity
or the existence of the physical path. If the path starts
with a forward or backward slash, the method returns the
path as if the path is a full virtual path. If the path
does not start with a slash, then the method returns the
path relative to the directory of the ASP file being
processed
