Web Part (VBScript)

Asked By: Sophie Travis Date: Sep 27, 2009 Category: Sharepoint Views: 416

First of I'm not a developer and I need help running ASP code within a
web part. I have an ASP that has codes within <% ....... %> tags. But
when I put this code in the web part under the Embedded content box and
specify VBScript for the type of content, I get a Script Execution
Error: Expected statement. Can somebody please tell me what I need to do
to make this web part works?

If I understand you correctly, you are placing asp code in the embedded
content text box. You can not "put" an asp page in this box. You can
only put in HTML, VBScript, JavaScript or XML. If you wish to host an
asp page, you must check Get content from this Link and place the url to
the asp page. Asp uses VBScript, but Asp is not VBScript and the engine
that creates the web part from the definition will not recognize asp
objects natively.
