    Few months back I have migrated my entire ASP 3.0 site to ASP.NET code. I have found migration of about 65 ASP pages to .NET not all that difficult, although the database access required to be redone. It took me about 8 weeks to finish the bulk of it. But it took me few more weeks to smooth it around the edges and fix-up few bugs in my code. I found that is very useful to have good error logging system in place to track all the errors. I come from VC++ background so finally it is awesome to have ability to program strong types code, and run web application in compile code. Since the migration to .NET I have a blast with .NET WebServices, ASP.NET User Controls, and .NET Controls (like ActiveX). I would like your opinion (positive criticism is welcomed too) about the work I have done so far on my site. http://www.wininsider.com - [^] Do others have positive migration stories in either ASP.NET or .NET Win apps?

I've coded some small ASP.NET apps for fun, and I'm impressed. Having real language on the webserver side rocks.

Especially, I don't like the header with line patter. Doesn't look good on LCD monitor. Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com

    Never argue with an idiot, he'll bring you to his level and beat you with experience.

      my next project - better header design (I agree) I think my Microsoftonian bias/roots are showing. :) Mike M WinInsider.com

        I think that, while it looks too much like Microsoft's old design, I think it's a great example of how powerful ASP.NET can be and just how good it can look at the same time. Very good job. I love ASP.NET. It definitely is one of the coolest things about .NET. Is it coded in C# or VB.NET? David Stone It seemed similar to someone saying, "Would you like to meet my knife collection?"

            You have VS.NET? If not, you can go to www.asp.net[^] and download WebMatrix. It's a free-time project of the ASP.NET team. Not officially Microsoft, but rather just the people on the ASP.NET team. I hear that it's pretty good. [edit] Jeremy, I just did a search for you on the net. (Not through Google.) I didn't look at the link or the name before I clicked on the link, but it brought up www.breastfiles.com[^]. I was astounded. I though :wtf: "No way he runs that site." When I read further down, I found out that it was Jeremy Falcone. Oops. [/edit] David Stone It seemed similar to someone saying, "Would you like to meet my knife collection?"

                  It looks pretty good to me, though I haven't had a chance to look over it in huge detail. Nice work :). The only thing I would say is that it is .NET and not .Net, as on your 'top story'. HTH. -- Andrew.
