ASP in InterDev to ASP in VS.Net

[Dave F]

I have an ASP project in Visual InterDev that I would like to move to Visual
Studio.Net 2003.

Does Visual Studio Net support this?

I want to get the asp files into Visual Studio.net so I can eventually
upgrade them to aspx (ASP.NET).

How do I go about doing this?

I think you'll find that "upgrading" your site from ASP to ASP.NET isn't
that simple.
Most likely you will be rewriting it, if for nothing else then to take
advantage of the OO system.

As for using VS2003 for "classic" ASP, yes, it should be able to.

ASP files are plain text. They can be edited in any text editor, even
Interdev and VS.NET. You don't "get them into" the editor, you simply
open them.

ASP to ASP.NET isn't a simple "upgrade". They are two differing
technologies, and while code may transport across it often isn't
relevant.

I want to "ease" into this upgrade.

Can I combine two projects in one web site; a ASP classic project developed in VID and a ASP.Net project developed in VS.Net?

IOW is it possible to publish from VS.Net into an existing ASP classic web site on IIS 6.0 so that both types of pages will be accessible? Or should I make them separate webs or virtual directories?

And can anyone comment on whether the following Wrox book is helpful?

"ASP to ASP.NET Migration Handbook: Concepts and Strategies for Successful Migration"

Thanks
