Is "Visual Studio WebDeveloper Expres" i.e. http://www.microsoft.com/express/vwd/ free? Will it work for developing ASP classic applications?
Adrian
Yes, it's free - no charge - pro bono. You can use it for classic ASP. but it does not support Attaching to Process, so you can't use it as a debugger.
