I am not sure what your options are at this point as to how much stuff you would have to move if you followed my method. Typically I do that right off before developing any work in the project.

I just name it CodeBase or something different and that part is fine. There is no real reason the Admin files would not build but is probably related to the other things that are a problem.

Thanks Tim for your reply. I did exactly what you described and I have managed to get by App_code but I have two major issues:
1. The files in Admin page generate 177 errors. I tried to changes their properties from content to compile and the errors are still there.
2. The Mere Mortals controls are not recognized in the aspx.cs file.

Another thing is the Mere Mortals doesn't have a project template for Web Application. If it does the conversion may be easier.

Thanks,
Adrian
