Is there a way to connection to the root of a web site in VS.NET?  Everytime 

I connect to one of my servers using "ASP.NET Web Application" as my project 

choice, VS.NET forces me to enter in a project name which creates a virtual 

directory under the root of the web site...  I want to develop at the root 

e.g. http://www.myapp.com, not http://www.myapp.com/myNewWebProject...  Are 

you having to develop at the project level and then copy your assemblies to 

the root directory to accomplish this?



Thanks ahead for any insight!

1. In the VS New Project dialog for VB or C#, select the last project

type: New Project in Existing Folder.

2. For the "Folder location", specify "http://localhost", or the url of

your web.

3. VS will create a web project in your root web, but there won't be any

files in it by default.  You can add new files in the usual way, or

"include" files that already exist in the root web, like this:

a. Project > Show All Files (to display files that are in the

directory, but not part of the project)

b. select one or more of the grayed out files, then Project >

Include in Project

c. File > Save All

straight hours of programming will do to you :))...  That worked, Thanks
