Dave,

I tried to follow your suggestions on creating the project at 
the "localhost" virtual directory instead of through "C:some path" but the 
VI interface won't let me.  Am I not understanding your directions 
correctly?  The problem I have is that when I view a DTC command object, 
actually text boxes tied to the DTC command object, on a "HTM" page the 
web page only displays the text boxes and their labels.

I've tried the suggestions in the errata for "Beginning Web Development 
with Visual InterDev 6" which call for reconfiguring the FPSE by 
running "fpsrvadm.exe" on the web server.  I've also tried 
running "handunsf.reg" as well as verifying that the virtual 
directory "MSADC" is in the proper location and that "Allow Execute 
Access" is turned on.

Could I be missing an installation component in the Visual Studio 
interface?  I don't believe I installed the server component, could that 
be causing me this problem?
