Mitch Rupp's .NET Blog

Well I just find another one (It's new for me). What I do is after a first copy of my application to my Production server, everytime I need to update the site I exclude Webconfig from the project, copy and include again WebConfig. [ heLP .Net Blog ]

I so something similar to this but instead of excluding the web.config I sets its build action to none. When I am ready to deploy, I use the copy project feature of VS.NET select the copy only the files needed for this application option and the click ok. In the copied project folder, I make any changes I need to the web.config file to prepare it for deployement (i.e. update paths, etc.). Then in my main project in VS.NET, I set the web.config's build action to none. This prevents my production web.config from being overwritten by my dev version.

I am using Visio for Enterprise Architects for my current project and the boss man isn't too impressed with its logical database diagraming abilities. Does anyone have any experience with some better tools for this, or some tips on how to best utilize the current software for this task?

Well, my Dell Axim officially kicks mucho ass.  I installed Microsoft Pocket Streets 2002 today and pushed a couple of maps over to it. Pretty slick. I am also really impressed with the accuracy of the transcriber, especially after I went through the 'letter shapes' window and removed all the different variations of letters I don't ever use. It sure beats the hell outta peckin away at the tiny keyboard.

I also got the 802.11b wireless card set up. It is pretty sweet though the download times are noticable. I am not sure if that is our wireless network or just a limitation of the card. By the way, I am having a hard time finding really cool sites designed for a mobile device, so if you know of any please give me a heads up.

Any opinions on using a calendar vs. listing posts by months?
[ScottW's ASP.NET WebLog ]

Why not both? Personally, I prefer the calendar but I can certainly see why the archive by month would be preferable. Could a skin be created to accommodate both?

Well, I am going to give this weblog thing a shot.. I will try to keep blogs focused on .NET, primarily ASP.NET, webcontrols and the like as much as possible. I am new to the weblog concept, so if I commit any faux pas please let me know.

I want to let Scott know what a great job he has done with this product already. I look forward to the sexy features he has yet to impliment and I hope that I might be able to be of some assistance finding bugs and offering suggestions.
