<DIV>Sounds like it will. I believe the only folder in mapguide I really need to include in the vs project is one similar to mapviewernetsample so that I can write code in the weblayout.<BR> </DIV>

<DIV>Well, I'm new to asp, so maybe I'm not doing something right. What I'm trying to set up is a site at C:\inetpub\wwwroot where the main asp site lives but with mapguide as part of the solution so that users who login to the main site will already be logged in to mapguide. I also want to have a parallel site for development. But I don't want to copy all the mapguide stuff, just the www folder. However, my first attempt at this returned a lot of compile errors for broken links.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I started server development by getting mapguide up and running. Now I need to focus on getting the main site up and integrated with mapguide. My VS project only showed regular folders under wwwroot. It didn't show the virtual folder for mapguide. So I tried opening mapguide as a site, but VS only sees that as a regular site. IOW, if I want to add a new page to the mapguide application, only html page templates are shown. None of the asp templates show up. I can't find a way in IIS or VS to turn an existing application into an asp application. BTW, I'm using IIS7 on Server2008 and VS 2008. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So I'm still struggling with the concepts of good site organization. The asp guides I've seen so far only show you how to create a new site under wwwroot. I can't find anything that speaks about best practices for site organization and development and then publishing. Once I get over that, coding should be a breeze.<BR> </DIV>
