The use of ADODB and adovbs.inc is a give-away Cheers Ken -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Peter Maddin Sent: Wednesday, 14 December 2011 3:55 PM To: [email protected]; 'ozDotNet' Subject: RE: ASP.NET web site Thanks >> Yeah that is a 1.1 vb web page I suspected as much. >> looks like it was either a wizard conversion from asp to asp.net, It does look like a converted asp application. I actually checked out some asp examples in order to compare asp code with what I was looking at. >> Try turning option explicit off and option strict off in the project properties. I'll give that a try. >> My first reaction, is scrap it and rewrite I could not agree more but the powers that be would prefer one to maintain what's there and avoid a rewrite if possible. >> Which is the reason I decided not to do vb.net and do c# instead. I also decided not to use vb.net and go with C#. Have not regretted that decision until I was landed with this.
