    Hi Sander - OK - I've gone thru' all that and it all works so long as I use http://127.0.0.1/, so to use your example I can enter 
    http://127.0.0.1/prjWacky  and see the page but not if I use my computer name.

    In my case the PC is called OfficePC. I have created a subfolder called Test and it has a file in it called index.html. (WHich I can modify to be an ASP later).

    When I go into Administration Tools in the CP and look at 'Default Web Site' I can see the subfolder 'Test'.
    When I go into the Properties of Test and click on the 'Documents' tab the name Index is the first file name.

    The only problem I seem to have (given that all this works with 127.0.0.1) is that the browser can't find the computer name of OfficePC or find it using localHost despite my having reinstalled etc.)

    Is there anything I need to set under the Properties of OfficePC (computer name) itself?
    Cheers
    Kath

      Hi there,

      is you're problem still that you cannot open you're
      page with IIS locally installed?

      I just started building ASP stuff 2 weeks ago but I
      ran into the same problems. Took me a while before I
      got it going but now it runs like a train!

      Didn't read everything about this but you could try
      the following.

      Lets say you're computername is: wacky
      you've got a project called: prjWacky (THIS MEANS THAT
      IN YOU'RE INET\WWWROOT you got a dir called prjWacky
      with some files in it!)
      You've got a file in it called wackyhome.asp

      Now in you're IIS you've got this project (map)
      in/under the "DEFAULT WEB SITE" directory:
      in IIS you see:
      wacky
       |-Default Web Site
           |-Scripts
           |-...
           |-prjWacky
               

      When you right click prjWacky and go to the tab
      documents you're wackyhome.asp should be the first
      item. If it isn't add it!

      Then you should type the following in you're browser:
      wacky/prjWacky

      and tadaa you're first web site!

      HTH

      Sander

      BTW try VB-FORUMS.COM and check ASP thingy!!
