Judging from the type of webhost webhost4life is, this should be most of you. How are you setting up your development environment: Are you coding your changes on an IIS/SQL server running on your local machine, then uploading code to the webserver? Are you instead using your Front Page extentions to tap directly into your web server on webhost4life? How does your debugger work if you are not using the local environment option? For those of you coding locally, are you tapping into your DB at webhost4life? Or are you creating a local copy of your DB? Lots of questions I know :P Just anxious to jump into modifying some code! Thank in advance, Jeff    Report

Thank in advance, Jeff I use VS 2005 for my site (www.cityinfoterminal.com) I downloaded a backup of the live DB and set it up on my local machine.  I have two connectionstring settings in the web.config file one for local and one for live.  I just switch them out when I post my changes. I also use http://unstable.cityinfoterminal.com to post my changes so that people can test out changes and then I push it live once all is well. Terry    Report

Your http://unstable.cityinfoterminal.com idea is perfect. Thank you very much for responding to this post. I am still using VS2003 as I can't afford to get 2005 yet (No upgrade path for me). Although I will have to breaek down and get it soon as I am studying for my MCSD. 70-300 is tough! Thanks again Terry, Jeff "Beetlebub"    Report

I develop most of my sites in VWD using SQL Express and the built in web server. I have a few apps that tap into the same aspnet memebership database on webhost4life's server. Depending on the type of changes I have to make to the database, I sometimes will download a backup of the db, make changes, and then upload and restore over the existing live db. This solution is not good for all scenarios. I use this solution with my personal site jeremywadsworth.com and a product site for my company sprayMapper.com    Report
