"C:\Documen....\Scripts\Global.asax: ASP.net runtime error: There is no build provider registered for the extension '.asax'. You can register one in the <compilation><buildProviders> section in machine.config or web.config. Make sure it has a BuildProviderAppliesToAttribute attribute which includes the value 'web' or 'All'"


I managed to fix the problem by moving the Global.asax file back to the main folder (root folder) but when I have it in the Scripts folder I've made it messes up. I like to organise everything that I can, all the vb files of pages in a separate folder (that's another thing, how can I get it so the pages automatically create the VB pages in a certain folder and connect to it?) and stylesheets in another etc. but it doesn't seem to want to work with the Global.asax file. Is there anyway to fix this?
