Creating a web site on machinie and then working on it on another.

UJ
I've got a web site I've developed. I've deployed it and it works fine. My
boss wants to be able to bring it up and look at it through Visual Studio.
What do I need to do so he can work on it? He doesn't need the absolutely
latest code so I can copy it to his machine so he can look at it (he's not
actually going to be changing it - at least not at the moment.)

TIA - Jeff.

UJ,

I would use source safe for that. That way your boss and you will be able to
look at the same solution and he'll automatically get updates as you make
them. Plus, if he ever does start working on it, you'll both need to know
when the other makes changes.

But how do I set it up originally on his machine? When I load the solution
over there wont it not know about things like the virtual directories and
what not?

UJ,

If you use Visual Studio's "Open Project from Source Safe" feature it will
do most of the setup for you. Not knowing your exact website structure I
can't say for certain but that usually does all the necessary setup for me.
Including directory/virtual directory structures. But, yes, you may need to
first create the IIS website and virtual directories as an exact duplicate
of yours.
