Ok, you don't want to create a new virtual directory underneath your
FirstProject folder, but rather make your FirstProject folder the virtual
directory.  So first you'll need to delete that sub folder you created.
Then in the IIS MMC, right click on FirstProject, go to All Tasks, and
Configure Server Extensions.  Follow the wizards prompts and it should set
it up as a sub-web for you.  You'll probably need to make it an application
as well, so then right click on FirstProject, go to properties, then on the
first tab click the Create button.  This will fill in the box with the
Application Name.  Now just hit ok.  This should be all you need to do.

Sorry to ask,

Can you be specific how I do this.  I did create a virtual directory (and
called it FirstProject) in the FirstProject folder as you suggested, but it
still doesn't work.  I can access the APS page manually by going to this
URL:
http://MYSERVER/FirstProject/FirstProject/Recordset.asp

But using the view page in browser funciton in VI6 still points me to:
http://MYSERVER/FirstProject/Recordset.asp

Is there some way I can make the firstProject folder into a virutal
directory, rather than create one a level beneath it?

Thanks so much,
Rick

Do you see the FirstProject folder in the IIS MMC?  Just create a virtual
directory from that folder...

Hi thanks for your reply.  I can see the asp page when I create a virtual
directory for it.  So it is not the code that is the problem, but rather
the set up that is a little screwy.  I guess if I just wanted to type in
the virtual directory and the asp file name in the browser it works fine.
But I would like to be able to use the "view in browser" feature in VI.

So my dilemma is this.  my virutal directory is set to:
http://MYSERVER/MyVirtualDirectory/Recordset.asp

But when I use the view web page feature in VI, my browser gets sent to:
http://MYSERVER/FirstProject/Recordset.asp

Which, I guess, is where VI6 thinks the virtual directory is.  I have
tried to change the setting in both VI6 for the project and with MMC, but
in both cases I have been stymied.  I hope this helps you see what my
problem is.

Thanks,
Rick
