Code in global.asax.->

StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/AutoMailSend.htm"));

above line shows the error-> Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Thanks in advanced

Did you try Server.MapPath instead of HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath.

file exist at particular location :

1.below code is working in any aspx.cs file
2.but it's not working in global.asax.

if (File.Exists(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/AutoMailSend.htm")))
{

}

Your code looks fine.

But there might be problem while accessing file :

Replace your ScheduledTask() method with

static void ScheduledTask()
{
//Task code which is executed periodical

if (File.Exists("~/AutoMailSend.htm") // check file exists
{
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/AutoMailSend.htm"));
string readFile = reader.ReadToEnd();
string myString = "";
myString = readFile;
//

//iwant store data in mystring

}

}
