SYMPTOMS
========

When using the Package and Deployment Wizard (PDW) to create a Standard Setup
Package for an application containing Web Classes, .ASP and/or .HTM files will
not be automatically included in the application distribution set.

RESOLUTION
==========

To work around this issue, any .ASP or .HTM files must be added manually using
the PDW Include Files section during the packaging of the application
distribution set.

STATUS
======

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

4. Start the Package and Deployment Wizard (PDW) and create a Standard Setup
  Package, accepting all default values.

  NOTE: Any .ASP or .HTM files necessary for the application will not be
  included. These files must be included in the PDW's Include File section.
