    Upload files w/ following extension

    *.aspx
    *.config
    *.dll

    using FTP.

    Use Enterprise manager to upload your database. If you do not have the tool, you may want ot have the developer move the DB for you.

    it doesn't hurt to upload everything.

    MDF files can be the extension for diferent DB. eg. MS SQL 2000 database file, SQL 2005, SQL Express. If you are not familiar w/ this, I suggest you have who ever created it upload it for you.

  5. I hate to say this, but a normal developer wouldn't just drop a bunch of files in your lap and let you have at it.

    I would never in a million years expect someone else to deploy an application I've written. It would be part of my job to get the thing deployed.

    Jimmy.

    I totally agree w/ you. It can be difficult, even for some geek, to install an application if he didn't build it.

    Let us know if you need more help.

    Best of luck to you tran5557!!
