To set Option Strict
1. With your VB Web project open, click "Tools", then "Options".
2. Make sure the "Show all settings" box is selected.
3. Go to "Projects and Solutions", and scroll down to "VB defaults".
You'll see the "Default Project Settings" and the "Option Strict" dropdown,
with "On" and "Off" choices.

Did you try this answer before offering it? My settings are already set to
this. I then created a new class in my web project (thinking it's only
applied to new files added) and was able to add
Dim i As Integer = "some text"
with no problem.
That's bad.

I havent used VB.Net in a while, I only use C# nowadays, but I seem to
remember that if you want to set option strict globally you need to
open visual studio to the start page, with no project loaded and change
the option strict setting then. all new projects from then on will be
option strict by default.
worth a try, but as I said, I haven't used VB for a while

Not sure as not yet for real under 2.0 but I remember to have seen this is
now in the web.config file i.e. it could be perhaps different dpeending on
weteherr you are prcompiling the site (in whihc case the project level
property could aply) or on the fly (in which case the web.config option
could be used).

I have Option Strict On in Tools|Options->VB Defaults.
And also strict="true" in web.config.
It doesn't seem to matter.
It's also not in the list of bug fixes for SP1 (which is a fairly small list
considering the ludicrous amount of time that we've been waiting). But I
find it hard to believe that this hasn't been addressed... I'm hoping I'm
just overlooking something.

re:

It would only be bad if you couldn't modify the VS templates.
To change the default value of Option Strict, follow these steps:
Locate WebApplication. vbproj, inside:
drive:\VStudioI nstallDir\Commo n7\IDE\ProjectT emplates\Visual Basic\Web\1033\ WebApplicationP roject.zip
Extract it, modify the Option Strict line so it's On, save the file
and add it back to the zip file, overwriting the original file.
Notice thre's other files in the same zip file where the option must be set, too.
Also, do the same for any file in:
drive:\VStudioI nstallDir\Commo n7\IDE\ProjectT emplates\Visual Basic\Web
which has Option Strict = Off
I agree that the IDE is buggy regarding the setting of this option,
but there's a viable workaround, as detailed in this post.
btw, if you want to change the Option Strict option for other types of projects
( Windows app, Windows Service, etc. ), you'll need to do the same for *their* templates.

I will try this workaround... though it seems kludgy. Regarding other types
of projects: no need... as Windows Forms projects respect the Option Strict
settings you specify. It's only ASP.NET 2.0 projects that brainnumbingly do
not.
Thanks for the tip.

Correct. If you have an existing VB project, you can set it in the project

Sure... you can set it in many places... like Tools|Options and Project
Properties for WINFORMS apps (which works) and web.config for ASP.NET 2.0
projects. The problem is that it DOES NOT WORK for ASP.NET 2.0 projects.
Apparently, you have to manually insert Option Strict On at the top of each
and every code module in ASP.NET 2.0 projects.
I read this has something to do with 2.0's "project-less" infrastructure. ..
but it's still a bug nonetheless.
