VB.NET Program run on the Web ?

[zekeman]

Once I have written a VB-2005 Script/Program is there a way

to make it run on the Web or would I just need to start from scratch

and re-write in ASP.Net?

Thanks

Well, it depends.... if you wrote it as a Windows app, then that's what it is... a Windows app. If you wrote it as a WebForms app, then it's a WebForm app.... you can't just take a VB.NET Windows app and "run it on the web".... the interface needs to be re-done as a webform. Now, most of the code behind the forms can be reused, but it still requires some changes.

Hey dude thanks for replying .. But still would like to ask u something... did u used da code in asp.net. If yes than is it easy to convert application into webform or i have to learn ASP.net from start..

I think you will need to learn the ASP.Net stuff.

You can go to a MS site and pay about 6.00 for shipping and in about
4 days they will send you a 90 day triab of Visual Studio and bingo
you'll have what you need to do ASP.Net ( I don't know if its free
somewhere else like VB.Net Express is)

I think that some of your vb.net code will almost work.

I have made a demo of SITE using vb.net..

I'm not sure what you mean by 'demo of SITE' though

Visual Web Developer Studio Express is still free.... no trial, just the bare-bones copy of Web Dev.

It sounds like he's made a mock up of a site but using Vb.NET, rather than ASP.NEt....

And, not it's not just as easy as moving code from point A to point B.... it's going to be a re-write.
