Warnings in Visual Studio.NET 2005

When building a web site project in visual studio.net 2005 you will recieve warnings about code that contains common coding errors such as defining a variable and not using it. Now this is a good feature of visual studio.net 2005 but after painfully migrating our web application from asp.net 1.1 to 2.0 and getting it to build, removing any warnings were not at the top of out priority list. It would be good if these warnings would go away.

I had migrated a command line utility a few days before from version 1.1 to 2.0 of the .net framework and noticed the ability to turn off of which warnings you did not want to be warned about.

Now if only I could find where I configure this I would be laughing. This was not to be though as I soon relised this amazing functionality was not available to asp.net 2.0 web site projects. How pants is that :-(
