We've run out of Interdev 6 licenses so our new developer will have to have Studio .NET instead.
The coders tell me that developing non .NET projects is a PITA with VS.NET so does anyone know of any resources about developing non .NET projects in VS.NET?
Cheers,
Phil

LOL! The developers said it was bad but I wasn't sure.
Can you still buy VS6 licenses though?
I thought MS had retired it to force people to go .NET?

Hmm, I've done it one of two ways, just attach to the IIS process when you run the application, or embed 'stop' statements in the ASP to invoke the debugger by exception.
Try those, let me know if they don't work...

The big problem seems to be the creation of projects on the server and connection to them.
You can't seem to connect .NET to any of our existing projects and even if you create a new one with .NET you get nowhere??

Say you have an existing web project at http://server/virtualrootname with a load of ASPs in it.
Create a new empty web project using .NET at that location.
Then, in the solution explorer, press the 'Show All Files' button, and magically all your asps should be visible. Select all the asps and any other relevant files, right click and say 'Include in Project'. Then you can press 'Show All Files' again, to hide anything that you don't want in the project.
HTH,

David/Phil,

I do mostly .NET stuff nowadays, but when I need to do some 'old' ASP stuff I still use the .NET dev environment as I've got used to the VSS integration, intellisense on html, ability to debug ASP from VS.Net, direct access to databases from within the IDE etc. etc. So much so I've de-installed Visual Interdev 6 from my PC as I don't need/want to use it anymore?
Why do you find VS.NET a 'nightmare' to use with ASP?
