New to ASP

[JeremyWoertink]

Hi, I'm new to this whole ASP.NET stuff. I was assigned a project at
work to change an application someone else wrote, so I got it all
changed on my local machine, then I copied the files over to the
server, and I don't see any of the changes. If I edit the html files,
I can see my changes instantly, but if I edit the *.aspx.vb files I
don't see anything. What do I need to do so I can see these changes?
thanks,
~Jeremy

Did you recompile/publish your solution?

That may be true, but if you build your page (or preferably the whole
solution) prior to deployment and you've made any boo-boo's you will find
out
about them then and there where you can debug and fix, rather than when
the
first user on the production site requests your revised page, no?

I couldn't agree more! I've never understood how any serious developer could
even contemplate hacking about with a production system in this way...

I couldn't agree with you more also. My method is to copy the driving file
and rename it (adding a "1", for example). I then make copies of affected
files the same way. I do my editing and upload those. I then test by going
directly to the new driver file. After it works, I change the filenames to
the ones I want as well as the pointers to changed files. Then I delete the
temporary files. This is the safest way I see to do things for a production
system.

Did you recompile/publish your solution?

My project file is all held on a computer that doesn't have visual
studio. I'm not even sure how the application runs or anything since I
wasn't the one who originally wrote it. If I try to open the solution
file it just pops up "open with..." I have to edit the files with
notepad. But, again, i'm new to all this stuff, so maybe theres
something I'm missing. I'm familiar with VB.NET in vs2005.
thanks for the help

re:

Sure, you're missing Visual Studio. :-)

If money is a problem, download Visual Web Developer Express 2005.

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/express/aa700797.aspx

It may not read VS 2005's solution files...but it will read/compile everything else.
If it doesn't VS 2005's solution files, you can fix that problem very easily.

When VWD attempts to open the solution you might get a message saying something like :
"...this is a solution file, but it was created using a newer version of Visual Studio."

VWD parses the first line of the solution file to determine its version.
By editing the file in Notepad, you can get it to work in VWD.

If the file has "Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 10.00" in its first line,
change it to "Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 9.00".

Making sure the solution file's version is 9.0 will allow you to open a VS 2005 solution file in VWD.
