Migrating Frontpage Template 2003 to Visual Studio .Net 2003

[Ken]

I am trying to migrate a Frontpage .htm to .aspx. Having trouble getting the webbot's to work for the include headers, etc. within the .aspx. No errors generated, just the webbot's don't seem to work

Not much luck on finding documentation on migration issues or syntax changes required, etc

I would prefer to develop the pages in Frontpage 2003 and then develop the functionality in Visual Studio .net 2003 using C#

Any thoughts

Thanks in advance

Ken

Use Dynamic Web Templates instead of include files.

Roger that, Jim. In explanation, let me just add that FrontPage run-time
components must be processed by a different ISAPI than ASP or ASP.Net pages.
Since only one ISAPI can process a file, FrontPage run-time components will
not work on ASP or ASP.Net pages. DWTs are design-time components, not
run-time. Any design-time components without a run-time feature are fine.
