asp to asp.net

Hi

Is there an upgrade wizard for asp to asp.net or are asp websites need to be
recoded from scratch?

Thanks

actually, and this is strange but true. In most cases, you can just change
the asp extension to aspx and run the application. Most times, and if the
app isn't doing too much fancy stuff, that is all you will need.

If this doesnt succeed or throws errors, you may fix the errors and trudge
on. In the event that this fails, you'll have no choice but to rewrite.

If you change over to ASP.NET this way, you're not making
use of any of the advantages that it offers above ASP.
But the fact that most old ASP pages will still run in ASP.NET
does make it easier to do the rewrite of the user interface gradually.
