Sorry for the dumb question but what is the difference between ASPX and ASCX
pages?

Cheers
PK.

Why would you want a user control then.

I had seen this example of a copyright notice - in a usercontrol but this
won't never change

ASPX is a page and ASCX is a usercontrol. A page can contain usercontrols.

..aspx files are a Web Forms (i.e. pages), whereas .ascx are User Controls
(*not* pages, but page fragments).

Paul,

Let's say you have a control that you want to appear on every page. A login
with username and password fields and button is a good example. With a user
control you could create one single login control and then drop it onto
every page of your website instead of having to recreate it on every page.
