I have just installed Visual Studio 2005 Professional. When I start a new
ASP.NET Web Application using c# as the preferred language I don't see a
web.config file in the solutions explorer - it's not created. When I try the

created with VS2005 give the following error when I compile in VS2005...

I have a few questions which are probably quite obvious to the experts.

Visual InterDev (it was also free!)

I want to purchase a development tool for writing small applications for
personal use.  Previously I used VB 3.0 on an NT box, but now I have an XP

We have recently installed Visual Studio 2005 on several machines, and in
one case, add-ins never show up (the rest are fine). We have tried our own

I have a couple of VS6 projects that I have converted to .NET 2003
(double-clicking on *.dsw file and choosing "yes to all").
