Hi Bonnie,

>Do you mean you converted them from VS2005 to VS2008 or that you converted them to Web Application Projects?
I actually did both at the same time with my test, but primarily I was referring to converting to Web Application Projects. VS2008 had it built in so and I needed to know the answer with my VS2008 web site.

>Yeah, Scott Guthrie usually has very informative blogs. I probably read this one back when I was trying to figure out how to convert our VS2003 app to VS2005 and about had a conniption fit (whatever the heck "conniption" means <g>) when I found out that VS2005 didn't support the old style projects for web stuff!! We use web mainly for Web Services. Anyway, Scott's blog saved the day, because I immediately downloaded and installed WAP and I was a happy camper!

I saw the tutorial and actually used it. It has some great parts I would have missed so glad it was available. It is geared for conversion within VS2005 but it worked exactly the same in VS2008 for reference.
