Thanks Cathi

I did as you said but now I get the message "Unable to get the project file from the web server"

After I got this message I went to the C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\dp6\ folder and looked in it

I saw some files still named dp5 so I renamed them as follows but it still made no difference,

dp6.vsdisco
dp6.vbproj.webinfo
dp6.vbproj


Do you know of a good step by step walkthru for copying a solution. The Microsoft example does not seem to work.
