iSec,
Clearly from my screen shots, "New web site..." is not an option. I am going to try and reinstall the software to resolve the issue I am experiencing.
Thanks,
RCorr

It is an install option to add web development if I remember correctly.... Just do an "add components" via A/R Programs

Michael,
Yes, that was it. I now can create a web site using Visual Studio.

The action pack is more designed for business that sale MS software. It's the MSDN subscription that's aimed at developers but costs 4 to 5 times as much as the Action Pack subscription.
As my company already pay Microsoft around £5,000 a year for their overly expensive Service Providers Licensing as well as the Action Pack Subscription I refuse to pay them even more money by subscribing to MSDN, which I believe is currently around £1,000 a year. Obviously as with all other of Microsoft's software if you are in the US you would get this around 40% less!!
Which brings me to another point, if we have to pay more in the UK for Microsoft licensing because they claim they need to produce special versions for Europe then how come all their software tries to install with the US default. If we have to pay more then shouldn't they supply a UK installation disk!

Hey Bruce, Not sure if you received it as well but we received an action pack update kit which includes Visual studio 2008 - the pack is called "Microsoft web solutions toolkit"

Me too, but like I said I received a folder through the post called "Microsoft web solutions toolkit" and it had VS 2008 standard and a few other CD's which are:
1: Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Standard edition 2: Web design & development content DVD 3: Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 - Partner resource 4: Microsoft Expression Studio 2
Seems like you can order this free kit here (https://partner.microsoft.com/UK/40047166) More info (https://partner.microsoft.com/40029569?msp_id=websolutions)
Just thought you'd like to know.

Talk about jumping through hoops, finally after spending hours on MS's partner website I phoned them up and the web solution toolkit is now on order

hehe, glad you finally got it coming.
The hours of trying to get it is better than the price for MSDN :D
