Custom Controls in ASP.Net 2.0

[Guest]

What happened to custom controls in ASP.Net 2.0? I can't get my old custom
controls from Asp.Net 1.1 to work in Asp.net 2.0

they are designed different. did you them run thru the convert wizard?
without knowing the problem its hard to diagnose.

If you are using an assembly in which a custom control is compiled already it
should not be a problem.

If you imported your project into vs.net 2005 then the wizard would take
care of the conversion. Otherwise there are conversion issues that you might

How do I import a project? I tried to just open an old 1.1 Asp.net Project
but that didn't seem to work.

In vs.net 2005, when you open a project (using the normal
File->Open->Project/Solution options), if that project were written in vs.net
2003, then the wizard will launch automatically.

Did you get a dialog box “Welcome to the Visual Studio Conversion Wizardâ€
when you opened your project?

This wizard guides you to save a backup of your project before it proceeds.
At the end it will give you log of errors regarding the tasks that it could
not accomplish (for example, I get errors all the time regarding the
references to the business and data layers, which I then have to open,
convert and compile separately)

You don't.

If you open a 2003/1.1 project in 2.0/2005,
it will ask you if you want to *convert* it.
