Solution 1

Only

C#

Server.MapPath("~/invitemail.htm")

is sufficient. Microsoft.SqlServer does not have a namespace 'Server' (AFAIK).

StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(Server.MapPath("~/invitemail.htm"));
if i do like this above code....it have red line under a "Server"..
but i also try in this way also...
//StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(File.OpenText("~/invitemail.htm"));
//StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(File.ReadAllText("~/invitemail.htm"));
