Keith Williams's questions

I have a very large and complex web application running .NET 3.5, with some classic ASP pages and VBScript components thrown in for good measure. The site is running on IIS7, and is a root website.

Ideally, I'd like to have a sub-application beneath this website which runs .NET 4, to deploy new components. However, this is presenting me with difficulties and the following error is showing:

The value for the 'compilerVersion' attribute in the provider options must be 'v4.0' or later if you are compiling for version 4.0 or later of the .NET Framework. To compile this Web application for version 3.5 or earlier of the .NET Framework, remove the 'targetFramework' attribute from the element of the Web.config file.

Is this going to be possible at all, or should I give up and find another way?

We use Word 2003 on all computers; we also use Group Policy to set a shared "workgroup templates" folder, which is really useful as we can just copy .DOT files into there to make them accessible to all users.

We have a company policy that all documents must have a filepath and a page number in the footer. I'd love to be able to override the default Word template to include these if possible - can anyone suggest a neat, efficient way of doing it?

Thanking you in advance...
