Sorry if this sounds like a noob question.
I downloaded this asp.net project from the live server – the client said it has everything needed to run. I don’t know what version it is, but it doesn’t have .designer.cs files, only .cs files, so I guess it’s pretty old.
When I open the project in vs2008, it gives a lot of errors, so I can’t compile it locally.
The questions is:
As I need to make changes in .cs files, do I only need to upload the .cs files to get it to work? Don’t I need to compile the project and upload the .dll files??
Thank you!!
It sounds like you may have a “web site” type project:

Is there a csproj file? If not, then you can be pretty sure that it is. This project type compiles dynamically, so the cs file is present on the server. I don’t care for this type personally, and would convert it to a web application, but that’s just me.
