I've ported legacy content into a DNN blog, and build a little app (map.aspx) to convert old URLs to DNN URLs.  The app works great if I can just get the URL marshalled into the right format.

Basically...

The OLD URL: http://www.prorec.com/prorec/articles.nsf/articles/4499075A4BDF390D862566CF0022418C

needs to be converted into

The NEW URL: http://www.prorec.com/Articles/tabid/109/EntryID/28/Default.aspx

which is easy if I can just create

The MAP URL: http://www.prorec.com/map.aspx?articles.nsf/articles/4499075A4BDF390D862566CF0022418C

As you can see, the MAP URL is just a substitution of "/map.aspx?" in place of "/prorec/".

I thought that I could create a Friendly URL rule to do this:

Match Replace With
.*/prorec/(.*) ~/map.aspx?$1

But this does not seem to work.

So, can anyone help me out?  I'm on the verge of a perfect solution, but, alas, hopelessly stuck.

I realized my question isn't worded concisely.  Let me retry.

Can I use Friendly URLs to substitute "/map.aspx?" instead of "/prorec/" in this URL, and if so, how:

http://www.prorec.com/prorec/articles.nsf/articles/4499075A4BDF390D862566CF0022418C

Does anyone here have an answer to this question?  There is very little documentation anywhere about the proper care and feeding of Friendly URLs.  Please advise.
