By default, that file is stored under My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\YourSolutionOrProjectName

However, the file is not human readable. You can recognize some of its content, but not much, and you certainly can't write to it.

I'm using Visual Web Developer 2.0 Express, not VS 2005. So, probably
that is why I don't have the file.

I'll just have to live with starting a project to see what page comes up
as the start page. Not a big deal. Thanks for your effort and research.

Look in the Options under Projects and Solutions. You have the option to "Always show solution". Once you check that, you see the solution appear in the Solution Explorer.

From there, you can see where it's saved...


But if I were you, I'd drop the concept of a fixed starting page. This was a huge problem in VS.NET 2003, but now in VS 2005, things are so much easier. When you press (Ctrl+) F5, you get the page you currently have open. In 99,9 of the cases, that's exactly what you want. In the other situation, just open the file from the Solution Explorer...
