To run an example from ADOnet 2.0 SBS 2005 edition, I opened a web site from
File System (Microsoft Press folder). I can review the Design and Source
tabs; however, running an example program, e.g. Chap 14-Finished, showed the
following error:

It is an error to use a section registered as
allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error
can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application
in IIS. C:\Microsoft Press\ADO.NET 2.0 Step by Step\Chap14\VB\Chapter 14 -
Finish\Chapter 14 - Finish\web.config 51

I have created a virtural dorectory pointing to C:\Microsoft Press\ADO.NET
2.0 Step by Step\ and IIS Admin did show a virtual directory. Why Chap 14
web site can not be opened?

TIA,
Jeffrey

Have you conigured the virtual directory as application?
