File->New->WebSite->ASP.Net Web Site

Or and this creates something slightly different (i.e. it has a project file.

File->New->Project->Expand Visual C#->Select Web->Select ASP.Net Web Application

I believe you need the latest service pack for Visual Studio to create the second of these.

You have to check the installation options on Visual Studio 2005 - go to Add / Remove programs for VS2005 on Control Panel and check that you have 'Visual Web Developer' installed. If not then you can't create ASP.NET websites.

I've made this mistake a couple of times when installing and then gone 'where's the websites option'. I don't think that VS2005 installs it by default.

I got that thing about needing the Service Pack from this page [URL unfurl="true"]http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/asp.net/aa336618.aspx[/url]

As far as I'm aware Visual Studio 2005 only has 1 service pack released for it at the moment. Where did you get SP2 from?

I asked the MS Visual Studio Presenter (Sorry, can't remember his name) for the MS Event in St. Louis. My understanding of his answer is that IF you are using any .Net 3.0 then your run time compatibility is only good for Vista and XP WITH SP2.

I am not aware of any SP2 for Visual Studio yet.
