Quick question about converting ASP to ASP.NET (urgent)

[solidjp]

Is it true that you can convert an ASP project created in Visual InterDev 6, into ASP.NET as long as you don't rename the .asp to .aspx?

yes, asp and aspx pages can quite happily exist on a .net web app.

but if the page is not an aspx page it is not a ASP.NET page. I have tried useing some of the conversion tools. But I have found that if I want to change a product over to asp.net for speed or whatever reason. It is better to rewrite the code.

Why? Because if you don't then you likely are not using an object oriented approach (one of .NET's great benifits), your also not likely making use of the many speed tweaks that .Net has.

So short answer yes there are conversion tools.
Long answer Don't use them, they'll only make your life difficult.
