Doubt : ASP.NET problem

[ASP newbie]

I cannot run my asp.net application in w2k server.

But the program works fine under w2k professional.

Can anyone tell me is there any difference in the settings?

Many thanks.

[Kevin Spencer]

Thanks Alessandro. God bless you too!

I dont mean to rub it in, but I'll say that I totally agree with Kevin. You talk too much for someone that has never helped anybody Colleen. In effect
Kevin's post was very helpful, not only to the newbie but also to anybody
trying to offer any kind of help. I dont understand why you got all heated
up. Personally I think you owe him a "proper" public apology...

There is no such thing as unprofessional help on these public news groups,
either you help "Free" purely voluntary basis or you dont. Instead of
attacking Kevin, maybe you want to contribute and help out, if you feel you find the original posters question meaningful ;p

Keep up the great work kevin --You've probably already prevented many
newbies from making many inacurate, meaningless posts and hopefully enabled contributers, like colleen to providing the "profession al" help they seek to provide ;p

The truth cannot offend ofcourse, and if something does not offend then by
definition it cant be rude :)
Peace and god bless.

I tried to respond privately, but from my office am unable to do so. I
NEVER implied that you are not a professional programmer, in fact by your

signature, "Microsoft MVP" I knew that you were. What I said was that you

responded in an unprofessional manner. Your lengthy posts, in my opinion, only go to prove this. I will not respond any further to any additional
posts from you. You are entitled to your opinion of me, as I am entitled to

my opinion of you. I AM a professional programmer by trade, I have on
occasion posted responses to individuals asking for help, but have NEVER in

any manner responded unprofessionall y. You just have, many times. I'm
done, you can post more, but your posts will only go to show how
unprofessional your manner is.

How can you logically apologize for something and in the same breath, do it

again? Again, rather than help, you offer attack, which helps nobody.

BTW, I am NOT a "Microsoft Professional." I don't work for Microsoft,

never

have. This is purely voluntary (I thought I had pointed that out).

And, as

long as we're on the subject, who are you to define what is professional?

I

AM a professional. You are not. When you've paid your dues, like the

rest

of

us professionals, you may earn that right. Do you have the

self-discipline to do so? Only time will tell.

Maybe politics would be more suitable a profession for you. Logic is
necessary for programming, but not for politics.

Okay, Colleen, since I am behaving in an unprofessional manner, this will
certainly come as no surprise:

HELP! I'm being held captive by the Thought Police!!!!
