application wide tracing

[Guest]

I have set the tracing attributes in my config file to do application tracing as opposed to page. The documentation says I'm to view the results (for application tracing) via a page called trace.axd. I had assumed that the trace utility produced this page, I looked in the application root as described in the documentation and I couldn't find it. Is this page available somewhere to down load. Or, how do I get around this so I can get an application trace?

Thanks for your help.

Trace.axd is a virtual page and is created at run time. You will not find a
physical file on the hard drive as the file doesn't really exist physically.
To use the trace, navigate to a page (or series of pages) in your ASP.NET
application. Then manually type in the trace page:

http://server/application/trace.axd

You will see the trace log there.
