Newbie - VB.net ASP.net problem

[lrankin]

I have created a small ASP.net application from Karl Moore's new tutorial book. This program pulls data into a datagrid from an Access table. When I debug it, nothing appears in the IE window. There are no error messages. I can't tell if this is a program problem or a configuration problem.

This is a W2K professional machine running SP3. The IIS services are started and the default web site is running. The IISLockdown tool has been run.

Any hints are greatly appreciated.

more than likely it is the very common problem..try this

From a command prompt, change your directory to \winnt\microsoft.net\framework\v1.0.3705 and run the following command:
aspnet_regiis -i

Right on target. Now exactly what did I just do when I ran aspnet_regiis -i and why did I have to run it?

for some reason, there is an install bug with .NET that screws up the registration of some of the required iis components. That program you ran fixes that.

I usually have to post that answer about 10 times a week on various message boards. Hence why I said it was a common problem.

Cander, what other boards do you post on?

I get bored sometimes and feel like answering some VB questions.

Know of anyone that's trying to make a Winsock OCX type class, yet? I've been thinking about it seeing as how hard it is to work with sockets, but I don't feel like doing something that someone has worked 10x as hard for something.
