I am not offered option to select master page

Question

Using visual studio 2008. When I add a new aspx form to a project I am not offered the option to choose a master page even though there is one in the project. How do I turn that option on? It appeared automatically in the past.

Answer 1

When you add a new item make sure you select Web Content Form and not Web Form. Then you'll be able to select the MasterPage.
