Any built in way to get virtual / relative path or URL from absolute path containing disk name such as?

Or how to convert this :

Request.PhysicalApplicationPath will give you the physical root of your virtual directory.

So in your case if your virtual directory was at c:\projectroot, then you'd want ~/somedir/demo.txt right?

So if you did a string replace on the file path, replacing Request.PhysicalApplicationPath into a tilde character, along with swapping \ for / , then you'd get what you needed.
