Hey there, thanx for reading.

I am having major issues trying to import code from CCHTML 2008, Firestarter and WebForm into VSD ...

Maybe the procedure that is in the help file isnt as imformative that is needed.

Does anyone have a method to import from each that works with VSD.. could you post that here...

Regards

Kev, older version but same process.

with Firestarter it's the same way, just copy the code, paste it in page in VSD and upload in the program that was used to make them.
Visual Site Designer 5.9.4 if you click the appropriate tab on the left for form buider and for firestarter then it will ask you to search the the xml file that you made when you saved your project, will automatically attach the files needed for that project. I don't have an updated tutorial made as yet. Hope this makes sense.The above can still be used in the new version of VSD.

Thanx for the reply, I am having issues with my VSD 5.9.4 then.. after I create the file in firestarter/webform etc I place the file in an accessible folder ( current user/my documents/folder ) I click onto the tab for adding code, browse to the folder and xml file... click but I dont get a voilah code entered info but a small square appears on the vsd page... i then test the application but no form appears...

The VSD proggy is running on an up to date win2k system with sp4 ... maybe I need to contact the CC gurus ... it could be a bug ... but more than likely its me the driver : )
