Server.MapPath maps a virtual path (such as
"/myfolder/subfolder/myfile.txt") to a physical path
("c:\mysites\thisapp\myfolder\subfolder\myfile.txt ").
ServerVariables allows to retrieve some server defined variables (such as
the path to the current path). The Microsoft sample does likely something
like displaying the physical path of the current page.
In your case try Request.ServerMapPath("/whereyouwanttostore/yourfile.txt")
