    Create an .sln file for an existing ASP.NET application


    I just copied the file folder containing an ASP.NET application from a
    backup on network share, to a new development workstation. But in the
    process, I've lost the .sln file.

    (BTW, I am accostomed moreso to .NET Windows Forms development, where the
    ..sln (and other metadata files) are all self-contained within the project
    file. In that case, I never have problems moving the project from one
    system or folder to another.)

    How do you create a new .sln file for an existing porject folder? Or, am I
    way off base here and there is a "big picture" solution moving a project
    folder from one folder to another.

    Thanks, Bruce

    From the Visual Studio menu choose "File | New | Project..."
    From the resulting dialog, under "Other Project Types" choose "Visual Studio
    Solutions" and create a blank solution.
    Then from the Visual Studio menu choose "File | Add | Existing Web Site" and
    point it to your web site to add it to your new solution.

      Steve,

      Excellent, just what I needed!! Worked find. Thanks.

      Rhetorical question for Visual Studio team.... how would anyone ever
      conclude this, without putting a posting on a newsgroup??

      Cheers, Bruce
