VC#Wizards and VBWizards subfolders. Inside these folders, you’ll find
the various wizards and templates.
Inside the wizards folders are further subfolders that contain each individ-

WIZARD_NAME parameter
from the .vsz files. So you’ll want to add a CSharpHTTPHandler and
HTTPHandler folder to the VC#Wizards and VBWizards folders.
Inside these folders, you must follow some conventions for templates and
scripts that Visual Studio will require to be able to find your files. You’ll
need a Templates folder and a Scripts folder. Inside each of those folders

that represents standard English. Since we’re just dealing with an English
installation of Visual Studio here, this is what the folder needs to be named.
If you were to use an installation of a different spoken language, you should
expect a different number.

bring up the Add New Item dialog box, you’ll see an entry for the HTTP Han-

HTTPHandler.ashx file in the Templates/1033 folder of VC#Wizards or
