visual studio .net enterprise tools : Changing Web Servers

I have a bunch of ASPX apps. The solution files are saved locally, and the
updates are automatically saved to a web server in another location.
(Vstudio 2000 and 2003).

I have recently changed web servers... but my applications, when i try to
make any programming modifications are still looking to the old web
server... how do i change the location of the web server in the solution
file? (sln or vbproj files).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello Chris,

Thanks for yor post. As I understand, you moved your ASP .NET Web
application to other web servers and want to update the solution file.
Please correct me if there is any misunderstanding. You can point the
solution to another web server by the following steps:

1. In Visual Studio .NET, on the menu "File" -> "Open" "Project From Web".
2. Type the address of your virtual server (for example, type
http://anotherhost), browser the web project file (say, .csproj) and then
click Open.
3. Right-click the solution in Solution Explorer, choose "Save yourweb.sln"
to save the solution (.sln) file.

Please refer to the following KB article for detailed information:

Please feel free to let me know if you have any problems or concerns.

Have a nice day!
