Default Noobie Classic ASP question

Hi all,

Sorry for the basicness of this question; I've never dealt with classic ASP.

I have an old classic ASP site straight from the live folder's location, since it's not in source control. The .asp pages have inline VB in 'em. There's no Visual Studio (was it even called that for VB6?) Project file... just .asp pages.

If I change some code and we re-install the page, it'll compile when someone accesses the site and the changes will be in effect, correct?

Thanks in advance for your help!

;;;The .asp pages have inline VB in 'em
This should be VBScript not VB - big difference

;;;There's no Visual Studio (was it even called that for VB6?) Project file
Probably because it did not get created using VS. I have never seen any classic ASP site that has been created using VS (im sure its possible but unlikely)

;;If I change some code and we re-install the page, it'll compile when someone accesses the site and the changes will be in effect, correct?

mmmmm Im not even sure what you question is but FYI Classic ASP does not get complied, its and interpreted language. you make chages to the .asp file, place it on the server and thats all you need to do.

Hopefully I have answered your quesitons
