unable to create a asp.net project??

hi,
i'm running windows 2000 and Internet Information Services 5.0, that's
the version that the help file for iis shows, i'm using Visual Studio
..Net 2002 (version 7) but whenever i try to create an asp.net project
i get an error. here is what i do:
Click Create Project
For Location type:
http://localhost/5040/WebApplication1

5040 is an alias, it works, if i put .aspx files there i can run them.
but when i click ok i get a message saying:

"The default Web access mode for this project is set to file share,
but the project folder at 'http://localhost/5040/WebApplication1'
cannot be opened with the path 'C:\BegASPNET\WebApplication1.' The
error returned was:
Unable to create Web Project '5040/WebApplication1'. The UNC share
'C:\BegASPNET\WebApplication1' does not exist or you do not have
access."

If gives an option to retry and try to open with FrontPage extensions,
i've tried retry but same message, i tried the FrontPage extensions
but that also errors with a message saying i do not have them
installed.

Any ideas on how to fix this? i just want to work on a project,
rather than using windows explorer to manually make .aspx files and
then open them with visual studio, doing that i don't seem to get the
option to view the page so i can drag and drop components onto it, all
i get is the code page, currently trying to learn code behind so
getting all this to work would help.

Thank you.

Try this

reatingWebApplication.asp

You are unable to create the project bcoz the windows id
on which u have logged in doesnt have sufficient prevlgs
to create a folder.
