Hi

I have XP home edition in my Home PC
I'm preparing for .net certification.
To run web application I need IIS.
Where can I get the IIS developers version to install in
my system

Thanks

You cannot install IIS on XP Home.

If all you want to do is develop ASP.NET pages on that PC go to
www.asp.net (a Microsoft site, and .Net home) and take a look at Web
Matrix.

This is principly a GUI development programme - a cut down version of
Visual Studio if you like - BUT includes a (very) basic version of a
..Net web server that can be used for learning/development.

Limitations are that you can only access it on the local machine.

Big bonus is that it's free! You can also download MSDE - Microsoft SQL
server Desktop Edition - a cut down version of the database engine that
works with Web Matrix so you can develop databases to work with .net
too.

MS Access support is also built in of course.

If you want to stay with XP and have IIS, you have to
upgrade to XP Pro. You cannot add it to XP home.
