VWD and Frontpage 2003 installations

Hi,

I want to install VWD 2005 Express on a machine that already has Frontpage 2003 and IIS 5.0. The documentation says that VWD comes with it's own webserver. So, my question is, will VWD install alongside my Frontpage/IIS environment without conflicting with Frontpage or IIS functionality

Thanks!

Claude

    Thanks for your answer Dan.

    I guess as a follow-up question, can VWD use IIS and work as Frontpage and Visual Studio do with "virtual" directories (so I can test on IIS and deploy to live server later) or does it only work with file system based directories

    Thanks very much for your help.

    The web server that is installed with VWD is only invoked when you run or debug a web site opened from a file system location.  The web server will only launch an instance of a web site opened from within VWD; the web server is not "running" merely by installing VWD.  So, yes, the installation of VWD will not interfere in any way with IIS/FrontPage environment.
