one-step publish to web server?

I'm looking for a one-step publish to server solution. I'm developing my web
app in VS.NET and use my local IIS for testing. When ready to publish the
latest release, I'd like to be able to hit "publish" so all the dll and aspx
files are uploaded. I do not want source files on the live server. I do have
full admin access to the live server I wish to publish to.

Right now I'm using dreamweaver to publish, since I can select which files I
don't want to publish. I also use an FTP client sometimes. Both of these
methods are slow and clumsy.

Isn't there a way to use VS.NET to maintain a test server and live server
config? I'd rather not use source safe right now.

Max,

Have you tried the Copy Project feature in VS.NET. I have used this
feature to deploy web applications to another server after testing
locally. It includes an option to copy only the files needed for
runtime.

Make sure you have the web application project selected in the
Solution Explorer. Then from the menu bar, select Project | Copy
Project... Note the destination server requires Front Page Server
Extensions.

I'm a complete newbie to postgres so please look the other way if these questions are really stupid. Is it legitimate to have one database per data file? For organizational and backup purposes, I'd like to keep the database files for each of several projects separate. This means, e.g., that postmaster must have multiple instances going simultaneously? I'm thinking the answer is NO because, for one, the TCPIP

I come from a background of Java and C# where it is common practise to have one class per file in the file/project structure. As I have understood it, it is more common practice to have many classes in a Python module/file. What is the motivation behind it, would it be a bad idea to have a guideline in your project that promotes a one class per file structure (assuming most of the programmers a background similar to mine)?

I have an mdb with a *projects* table. I also have a *timecode* table. Projects and timecodes are related by a one-to-one relationship but I do not want to simply add the timecode field to my projects table for the following reasons: -Not all projects have a timecode -Not all timecodes have a project initially.

Forgive me if this is a foolish question. I "play" in Access and have only created a few rather simple relational databases. My knowledge and experience is limited.

I have posted this question in hibernate forums also.. As this forum is related to java, i am posting it here also ... In hibernate, presently one-to-one associations are fetched non-lazily... I know that this is done because, hibernate requires to fire 1 sql to find whether proxy can be created or not... and if it has to fire 1 sql, then why not to load one-to-one object itself in 1 sql instead of creating proxy of it (in 1 sql). ...
