The difference is that now you are looking for all files within 
subdirectories, plus the ones with .asax or .asmx extensions in the 
root.  I think you grabbed more than you bargained to (but I am not a 
regexp expert, and I don't know what files within your subdirectories 
you want).

The problem with your first string was that it only got entries with 
.asax or .asmx extensions.  If your directories also had a .asax or 
.asmx extension then it would have gotten them too.

You probably want something more like this:

   WebSite = WebCode/Controls (^.*\.asax$|^.*\.asmx$|^\w*/$)

Or like this if you have directories with whitespace in them:

   WebSite = WebCode/Controls (^.*\.asax$|^.*\.asmx$|^[\w\s]*/$)

Again, I'm no regexp expert, but I think that should work.
