Thanks, but i gave up on that... I had used the VS.NET 2003 CD but after
doing a complete install when i tried to create a project it said that
it could not find System namespace. This happened even after i tried
repairing as well as uninstalling and reinstalling several times.
Now when i tried to install this VS.NET 2003 on a brand new desktop, (as
well as CMS 2003), i now get an error saying "Visual Studio.NET has
detected that the webserver is not running ASP.NET 1.1 and you will not
be able to run any ASP.NET web services or other applications".
Would you be able to help out with this latter problem ?

Hi Santosh,
The error message that you are receiving from ASP.Net is usually caused
when Visual Studio 2003 creates or opens a project, it makes an HTTP web
request to determine the version of the framework on the webserver.
http://servername/get_aspx_ver.aspx
In this situation, the default web site was using Forms Authentication, and
the redirect was to an HTM page. So the request for the .aspx page was
never made, and IIS could return no information about the framework.
To resolve the issue, simply update the location tag in the web.config file.
Cheers,
Tim Macaulay
