>><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" >

>> <head>
>> <title>webform1</title>
>> <meta name="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft Visual Studio 7.0">
>> <meta name="CODE_LANGUAGE" content="vb">
>> <meta name="vs_defaultClientScript" content="javascript">
>> <meta name="vs_targetSchema"
>>content="http://schemas.microsoft.com/intellisense/ie5">
>> <script runat="server" language="vb">
>> * Put your VB.NET code here
>> </script>
>> </head>
>> <body ms_positioning="gridlayout">
>> <form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
>> </form>
>> </body>
