you can create a label and write the text in that or write directly to the page using Response.Write

Congratulations on posting topic # 20000!!
You shouldn't just use Response.Write. That defeats much of the intent of web forms. Use a label or literal control and assign its text property to the string value you want to display on the page.

Peter,
Thanks for your advice. I was hoping to avoid using a label as I wanted my text formatted. I can do it with Frontpage so I just cut-n-paste from that (I suppose that is naughty).
Do I get a prise for posting the 20,000th topic!!
Regards

Sorry, no prize. :)
Is this static text you are just going to put on a web form? If so you can just put it on there. So I guess in this case, copy and paste is ok.

Peter,
Thanks. I will continue to cust-and-paste.
Do you know anything about spashes!! If I can find out how they are created, then I can cut-and-paste them.

Sorry, I meant Splashes, ie splash screen designs. Maybe they have a more technical name.

A very simple way is to have your default/index page refresh after x seconds. You can do this with a meta tag in the html head.
