  Re: WebDav and Visual Studio Reply Contact Currently Visual Studio does not have built-in WebDAV support, and by that I mean that you cannot open a web site in Visual Studio using an HTTP URL like you can with with FPSE. But that being said, I use both Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008 with WebDAV web sites by mapping a drive in Windows to the WebDAV site and then using Visual Studio to open a web site using the File System.

  Re: WebDav and Visual Studio Reply Contact Hi Haris, I've written two walkthroughs that should be able to help: Installing and Configuring WebDAV on IIS 7.0 http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/350/installing-and-configuring-webdav-on-iis-70/ Using the WebDAV Redirector http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/386/using-the-webdav-redirector/ Each of these walkthroughs have various troubleshooting tips that should help resolve the problem.
