Web Copy - Web Developer Express

I am a ASP.net 2.0 NewBee
I have a simple website I developed in Web Developer Express. I test it
with CTRL-F5 and it works.
I have found out that I can not Web Copy it to my hosted web site.
I am under the impression that I must first "pre-compile"
I use aspnet_compile.exe
Now I look for the results to copy to my website. Where are they ?
I see that aspnet_compile.exe generates a new folder in
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temp orary ASP.NET Files
There are some very strange files in this folder. What files do I place in
my WebSite ?
Could it possible be that you can not use Web Developer Express files on a
distant website ?
Thanks,
Jimpre-compiling is not required.
just copy folders/files up to your web host.

change settings in web.config for remote site as needed.

verify database is compatible on remote server and if needed, have web host attach database files to sql server if that is in use by
you and webhost

cheers

Thanks for the help.
I do have one more question.
How do I generate the web.config file in Web Developer Express ?
Thanks,
Jim

Just open "File|new" select 'web' , preferred language and then select "Web configuration file"
This will open a new web.config file but you still need to put the correct info into it.
