  1. Hello,

    I am new to working with visual studio 6.0. I am working on a website that a person previously was working on. Theperson left and deleted all the files on the laptop. The web server has all the files on it. Is there a way to take the files from the webserver and import them into visual studio 6.0?

    Thanks,

    As far as I know, VS 6 do not create web application. Is your application ASP or ASP.NET?

    O...


    You are probably using Visual InterDev in that case.


    I am not too familiar w/ InterDev but ASP should be quite simple. All you need to do is to download all the files on the server using FTP. Once you do that, I believe you need to create a project w/ Visual InterDev.


    I really don't recommend using Visual InterDev to develop ASP application. I have used it for a while long time ago but hated it. Many of our users also gave negative feedback on this tool.


    I recommend looking into other tools like Dreamweaver.

    I think you just need to copy all the files into the project folder and use the Add Existing Item feature.

    ok thanks,
     
  11. Bruce,


    I got the web sites rebuilt by using the add item. I was wondering, if you knew where i can find decent documentation on how to publish the web site on a test server within visual studio interdev?

    hmm.. i doubt that. First, InterDev was never very popular. Second, it's been a while since anyone use InterDev.
