Hi: The designer in the VS, or VWD, IDE is diferent from the one you use when working in CSharp or VB,.net or other file types like xml or sql or even txt. It is not very accessible. For that reason most folks do work with their html and native Form Elements like ListBoxes or TextBoxes etc... in the html Editor. In there you can bring up the ToolBox as you mentioned and drop ASP.net controls or html directly into the Code Editor. You can use Intellisense and you can highlight the first few characters on a llline then bring up the Designer and then the properties window or any combinition of that to get to the Events for that particular control. There are other ways of working on controls you drop into the Code for the page but they are all explained and demonstrated in some tutorials already out there for VWD 2008 and 2005. The process is to add a Webpage to your project, then open the html editor for the page, drop some controls on the page and set their properties in the properties window. Then Use any technique to access the events you want to add to any of those controls and then code the csharp to implement the functionallity you desire. As I mentioned you can be in the either the html editor or the code editor, hit a hot key combinition, I forget it off the top of my head, and have a list of the controls on the page come up in a ListBox. You highlight the control you want to work with, tab to another ListBox and in that one you have a list of all the possible events for the selected control. Hit enter and that event is added to the Code Behind Subroutuine for that event. That is only one way to do it. You can get nto the properties window from the designer and then you can tab to a list of events for a selected control and hit enter to do the same. There is another method but I forget it. Anyway, read through the StarTrek Tutorials if you can find them just to get an idea of some of the hot keys and methods that worked for me while building a couple of Websites. I did them in ASP.net, VWD, and Sql Server Express using VB.net as the language.

I would generally work in the page markup, since the intellisense will prompt you with html elements, and markup attributes, etc. and you can mostly also add event attributes like this and then right click there and tell it to go to/generate the code behind etc. - but don't work in this too often, so you might still need to play around with it a bit.Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA '...fate had broken his body, but not his spirit...'----- Original Message ----- From: "ishaq muhammad" <sendmailtoishaq@xxxxxxxxx>To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, November 22, 2010 9:34 AM Subject: asp.net help required Hello all, I am a new member of this list. I am 100 percent blind. i was successfully doing some basic application with c# and now I am required to develop a website in asp.net.it’s the first project that i have started developing and I am getting problem.Can someone please tell me how to work with designer window in asp.net? For example, I want to make a simple page with few textboxes and a button. I am able to invoke toolbox by alt+ctrl+x that I was doing in c# windows application as well, but when adding several controls, I am not able to open their code behind windows. In c# windows application, I used to press tab, and jaws used to announce the name of the control, pressing enter on which used to take me in the code window of that control. It’s not happening here. It says nothing when I press tab, shift+tab, enter or any other key in designer window. Even if I press f7 to go in the code window, only the code for page_load is written. I am sure that the controls have been successfully added on the page, because they are visible if I compile and run it on browser.I wonder, where has the code for textboxes, buttons and other control gone?i am so worried, is it not possible for me to work with asp.net? I heard that its doable, how do you do it? I have jaws version 10 with scripts for vs.net, and vs.net 2008.
