No to forget: I'll be at the PDC! And I am not the only one: 50 of my colleagues from MS Services Germany will attend the show.
I'll arrive in LA on Thursday, 23rd and return to Munich on Friday 31st. Let me know if you are coming earlier, maybe we can take a dring together.

I haven't been blogging for a while due to several reasons:

• Our project is in the final stages of development and piloting has already started which was quite team-consuming in the beginning
• I've moved from a small village outside of Munich to the city (Schwabing). From the new appartment it is only 10 min. to the "Englischer Garten" park by bike and even shorter to the swimming pool - best you can do at this temperatures.
• I've been playing around with Whidbey Alpha (especially ASP.NET) and Longhorn a bit - all not public yet => come to the PDC
• I've prepared my first article on ASPAlliance to be published pretty soon

The ASP.NET Version Switcher is a little utility that can be used to quickly switch the .NET Framework version that the ASPX pages are compiled against. This is helpful for developers who often have to test their web applications for compatibility with different version of the .NET Framework.

Internally, it uses the command line tool called ASPNET_REGIIS that is included in the Microsoft.NET Framework.

Additional features:
- toggle if only selected vroot should be version switched or child vroots recursively (-s or -sn command line parameter)
- double click on node opens explorer in respective directory
- quick link to IIS Manager

Download (V1.0):
ASPNETVersionSwitcher.exe

If you have any questions or comments please let me know.

Recently we have been on a short trip to Lisbon, Portugal from which we have taken two really good restaurant recommendations back home.

Lisbon is famous for its excellent sea food but as I don't enjoy fish too much we were looking out for some steaks.

The first evening we found a very nice and stylish restaurant in Bairro Alto called Sul (Rua do Norte 13) which served steaks on the hot stone - very delicious.

The second evening we went to a place called Kais (Rua da Cintura) which is located at the docks in an old factory building. But inside everything was styled very elegantly and the food was excellent as well.

If you go to any of these two, let me know if you liked it as much as we did.

Chris van de Steeg pointed out that the DynamicControlsPlaceholder currently doesn't restore User Controls that have a "_" in the filename.

He proposed a fix for the RestoreChildStructure method that I have now compiled into the new version 1.0.2.0 which can be downloaded at http://www.denisbauer.com/ASPNETControls/DynamicControlsPlaceholder.aspx  

Thanks Chris!

After I have recieved several request for Netscape support, I sat down and tried to modify the JavaScript code. Et voila, the new Version 1.2 has been tested with Netscape 7.0 but should also work with 6.0.

You can download it here: http://www.DenisBauer.com/ASPNETControls.aspx
