Hi Nithya,

in which line do you get the problem?
Which type is strSitePath dim'ed to?

I would suggest to retrieve each element separatly into a string variable to
see which element causes the problem or debug the code below using VS.NET.

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,
I am getting exception in the first line.
"Dim oContext As CmsHttpContext = CmsHttpContext.Current "

I am getting Invalidcast exception error.

Please let me know regarding this.

Hi Nithya,

is this code inside a MCMS template?

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi Nithya,

then you should not get this exception.
Please open a support case with Microsoft.

Cheers,
Stefan
