Includes are rarely if ever used in .net because better mechanisms exist. The ways to re-use code are: a. make the page into a UserControl i.e.

Common code can be put in a DLL in the \bin directory or compiled using the SRC directive http://learnasp.com/freebook/learn/cs_firstlib.aspx (C#) http://learnasp.com/freebook/learn/vb_firstlib.aspx (VB.net) On 11/28/05, glovitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Although not brand new to ASP.NET, new enough to need alittle > confirmation on a few things. > > I have created an asp.net page that is called as a pop-up page that > allows a user to search for employees via last name.
