Open and read/write ASPX file

Howdy,
Trying to open and read/write another aspx file from my aspx page. Basically
I want to be able to update my aspx files from the website. Here's my code
so far:
Dim path As String = Server.MapPath("tester.aspx")
Dim din As New StreamReader(IO.File.OpenRead(path))
Dim conts As String = din.ReadToEnd
txtEdit.Text = conts
But it doesn't work. If I use a text file, it works great, but not an ASPX
file. I'm assuming they're protected? How do I get them open?
Thanks!!

dlozzi@dotnet.itags.org.(remove-this)delphi-ts.comDon't laugh too hard, but it works fine. My first attempt at this script I
accidently selected OpenWrite which cleared the file. Then when reading a
blank file, I got nothing back.
I recreated the file with content and it works great now.
Thanks!!
