ASP.NET and IIS Server (aspnet_wp.exe)

[Abhijeet]

I have Windows 2000 OS with SP1. How to make the IIS
server to work with ASP.NET? Currently the IIS works fine
with the ASP applications but not with aspx. I do not
have .Net studio installed on my machine.

When I try to access any aspx page, it opens it like a
text file in browser. The aspnet_wp.exe file is not
present on my system.

I want to run asp.net pages on the system. Does this need
the .Net studio to be installed (which will upgrade the
IIS) or do I need anything separate to upgrade my IIS
Server?

I think you need the .NET Framework installed. (It's included with VS.NET,
I beleive, so installing VS.NET would solve it.... alternatively it's a free
download from the MS website?)

Someone correct me if I'm wrong !
