INFO: Common Errors When Working with ASP/HTML Files Under the Miscellaneous Files Folder in VI 6.0

ID: Q232095

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual InterDev, version 6.0

SUMMARY

Visual InterDev 6.0 has a Miscellaneous Files folder that allows users to open files that are not part of the current project. The Miscellaneous Files folder is not intended for developing Active Server Pages (ASP) and HTML pages that are part of the current project.

MORE INFORMATION

Here are some common behaviors you may encounter when working with ASP/HTML files under the Miscellaneous Files folder in the Project Explorer:

When viewing the page in the browser, a dialog box may appear and prompt the user to download the file.

When viewing the page in the browser, the following error may occur:

You are not authorized to view the page.

After right-clicking the page and selecting View in Browser, the browser is not launched.

Your data connections to the database may not work properly and red text appears in the Properties window of the Recordset Design Time control even though the properties are specified correctly.

To correct any of these problems, save the page, then drag your page to any folder under your project in the Project Explorer window or the root directory of your project.

This behavior is by design.
