Can you make a VB project that can be loaded onto the Internet to run as a
web page?

Fred
 
Are you talking about making an ASP.NET Web Application? What exactly are
you doing right now that you are hoping to do differently?
 
I have been working on a VB project to administer a test and score it. Now
the users want it to be available on the web. I am looking for directions
on techniques.

Thanks,
Fred
 
There could be 2 ways to do this.

Use vb code to create an ASP.net web page ( data entry thru the web and
stuff ).

Or...
use vb code to create a windows form application and distribute it through
you local IntraNet or through the web using ClickOnce to deploy it.
ClickOnce is pretty neat - once a user installs it, you can have it set to
'check for an update' on startup/shutdown/whenever you want...so lets say
UserA installs your clickonce application. and runs it.
Now closes it.
Now you happen to post a new version of software...
the next time the user runs it... it will notify the user that there is an
update available "do you want to download".

Very cool stuff IMO

What kind of final project are you looking to end up with?

Fred,

No, but you can use your Business layer and your Data layer most probably
and only have to make another UI in the format of a Webpage
(It is easy written here, but not as simple as I write it here)

ClickOnce is a deployment method for DESKTOP appls, not a Web App. Aps.Net
is the way to go
