Steps to download, deploy and run this project

The following are the steps to be taken to run the existing part of the application. Sql Server database, which contains all required tables, is bundled along with this application.

Download pa.rar and unzip it into any directory in your system. For example, if you extract to c:\ then it will create a directory c:\pa.
Start Visual Studio.NET 2013 Express for Web
Open the project from the directory into which you extracted the .rar file. For example, c:\pa
Database (pa.mdf) is placed in App_Data.
Required tables are to be created using tables.sql, which is part of the project
In order to keep download small, I have removed .dll files from BIN folder and some other unncessary files. So, project does not run after you open it in Visual Studio.
Recommended approach is to create a new ASP.NET MVC applcation and copy the required files from this project into new project. Use NuGet package manager to install projects like jQuery Unobtrusive Ajax, jQuery UI, jQuery Unobtrusive Validation etc.
Run project from Visual Studio.NET after you are done with the above procedure.
Go to /User/Login to start with Login Page
