Master pages

[Wayne Sepega]

We currntly have one site, with a menu. However, we have multiple projects
on this site. I would like to have a single master page for the entire site.

I did the following:

Created a new web site
added a master page to it


Created a new web site
Added a page
Pointed the master page to the page created above
Compiled
received the following error:
/MasterPage/MasterPage.Master maps to another application, which is
not allowed.

I was hoping to prevent having to duplicate the master page and copying it
to every application when it is required. Is there any way to have a single
master page in another virtual that all of our applications/projects can
point to?


Thanks
Wayne

That still doesn't allow the master page to exist outside of the project.
Just shows how to retreive the master page dynamiclly.
