title: Compiling classic ASP files
body: <p>I've inherited a classic ASP application written in VBScript. I don't have experience with either. I am using Visual Studio 2013 as my development environment.</p>
  
  <p>Please can you let me know whether it is possible to pre-compile ASP files? I just want to be able to view my compilation errors and ensure that the application compiles before running it. </p>
  
  <p>When running the application I'm encountering run-time errors (HTTP status code 500) and I don't know whether this is because of compilation errors or some other reason. </p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
