Newbie needing a little help getting started

I need to make a redirect page that will pass over an id and password to a diffrent site (universal login)
Well my company already has 2 of them (which i did not make either of them) and now I am being thrust into making them (and i barely know asp.net)
My boss told me where to get the files but when i try to open them it gives me an error saying "Unable to get project from web server"
I am trying to open the old .net files so i can see how they were made so i can pretty much use the same code just tell it to go to a diffrent page
Can anyone help me open the files or maybe point me in the right direction on how to make my own universal logins?
Well, the question is not clear.
You said you opened the old .net files, couldn;t you understand what was going on? Redirecting to another page on another server?
regards

If you can't open the files on the web server, have you tried copying the project over to your computer and opening it locally in visual studio.net?

Here is the thing...
My boss made it on his pc, he put the project up in a folder that I have access to on our network.
I pulled it down and now i can not open it.
My question is how to open the project.
and i also have another question, which is can someone point me in the direction on how to make universal links.

yes i have tried copying the file to my own pc, but it still is not working.
i really need to get this file open. Everything i try it keeps saying " Unable to get project from the web serever "


I'm not sure if this will solve your problem, but I read somewhere this can be solved if you:
1. Delete the project file from your LOCAL computer and remove the virtual directory
2. Create a new ASP.net web project in visual studio, which will also create a new virtual directory
3. Copy the files in the project from your web server over to the project folder you just created in inetpub, then try to open them
Hope this helps,
