Publish it to a web server, or have him install IIS on his machine and set it up.. wait. That would be publishing to a web server.
In short, an ASP.NET website needs a web server to run. Usually it’s IIS, but if you have Visual Studio, it uses the built-in Cassini web server. Either way, you need to have it in a web server of some kind. You can’t just run it as a stand-alone program.
I haven’t’ done this, but I think you COULD have it running in your computer in Visual Studio and still have him see it. If you run it, you’ll see that the address is in the format:
http://localhost/:%5Bsome port number]/YourWebAppName
If you have it running in Visual Studio on YOUR machine, your team member MAY be able to access it by changing “localhost” to your PC name. It’s worth a shot.
Otherwise, here are a bunch of links to how to publish your site, in case you’re not sure.
