I have an application where I am using a remote webservice. The webservice
method I'm calling requires a full path of a file. The webservice takes the
file and loads it into a SQL database, performs some calculations, and creates
a text file on the users local drive with the results. The FileReference class
doesn't provide the full path. Surely someone has come across this and has
found a solution. My thought shave always been that if ASP pages can do it Flex
apps will too. Please don't tell me I was wrong. Thanks for any help you can
give me!!!

If the webservice is creating the file, why doesn't it know where it put it?

I sorry, I ddn't make myself clear. There is an original file that I need to
allow the user to locate and then there is an output file. Input file and an
output file and the first one can be anywhere. Surely there is a way to get
file paths. Thanks so much.
