Re: Dll's = where?

1. I am assuming that websites cannot be compiled into dll's...why
would i want to do that?

Yes you can. With ASP.NET 2.0 you use aspnet_compile.exe to precompile your site.

Basically i have a master file that i want to
share with other apps on my corporate intranet for consistent look and
feel.

You'll need to deploy the .master file to every application's directory. There is a hack where you can map directories into your application directory to have a common file location, so you'll have to go google around for that. Sorry I don't have a link off the top of my head.

2. under my app_code folder i have some .cs files...it was my
understanding that these files would be built into one dll...i cannot
find the dll on my hdd...was i supposed to set up something to compile
into a dll explicitly on that app_code folder?

These are compiled into an assembly named __code.dll and it lives nested under:

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50215\Temporary ASP.NET Files\YourAppNameHere
