Hi,

Thanks for your response.

I suggest you use compilation for deployment, where a target output directory is specified. With this, you can copy compiled result to server.

After compiling, there is not source code and the dll will be generated in Bin folder.

Thanks.

Thank you. that could work. Should we compile on same directory or a different directory? Will these create a bin folder with dll's and no need for code behind? Thanks

Hi,

You can use ASP.NET Compilation Tool (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229863(VS.80).aspx) to precompile it using command line. When we use Visual Studio's Publish utility, it actually invokes that command line.

For example, Aspnet_compiler -v /WebApplication1

Thanks.

iIf I remember correctly Express does not have a build or deploy option, so you would have to deploy the readable source. This will perform exactly the same (after the first load) as it will be compiled then. Unless you are trying to hide the code, this will work just fine.

Hello,

How can i deploy a website with VS Express edition?

is there a release version like the Full VS where no code behind or .cs files are uploaded to the server?

Thanks in advanced for your help.
