if i have a server, and i wish to use it to test my asp application,
is there anyway that i can do that without uploading anything but just
testing it within the Visual Studio environment?

Thanks

Vinnie,

If you are using VS2005, then it comes with it own web server (light
weight, only for test and development of course). In VS2005 just run, debug
the application and it will launch the web app automatically in the local
server.

If you are using VS2003, then you need IIS on your local machine or you can
use cassini server too, but ISS might be the beter option.

What OS are you using?
What version of VS are you using?

I'm using Visual Studio 8. The fact is that if i try to log into my DB
hosted by the ISP, it logs me off for security reason, meaning that i
cannot access the data unless the website is uploaded.

When i used Dreamweaver with PHP i had the testing option available:
the system uploaded the website and let me test it, so i had the
access granted to my DB. Now i can't do that.

Any idea?

hi vINNIE,

Is there any way to have a copy of your db that you have at the ISP on your
local machine. The you can test and debug locally before moving the changes,
otherwise you are pretty much in the same boat with the VS2005 where you can
publish (one of the options given to you by VS) the site to your ISP site
and test it there, I assume you have on your ISP a test vs production
virtual directory?
