htm to aspx

I currently have a pure .htm based web site. I'd like to make my site ALL .aspx
pages, but don't want to do an file rename for each page (huge site) . I can't
do a search and replace on the file extension -so what is the best way to do
this?

I can easily add the aspx page directives in my main template, but this file
extension rename is something I can do without resorting to scripting...

Thanks in advance...

Mod rewrite would be the way - I have used ISAPIRewrite to do this kind of
thing on Windows servers in the past.

You do know that DW has dropped support for .NET with the CS4 release,
right?

This is from a recommendation Joe Makowiec gave me here recently. I haven't
had a chance to set it up yet but it should work for what you want too:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html

Actually, it's a single (set of) rule(s) which will work for all files.
In fact, the recipe on the page linked above will first look for a file
with the new extension before it rewrites; otherwise, it gets the file
with the old extension. Look for "Backward Compatibility for YYYY to
XXXX migration".
