Can't enter project settings

Can't enter project settings

  For the project where the properties dialog won't display, is that a new project or an already existing project from Beta1
  
  For the second problem, I suggest you recreate a new project and copy and paste the new stuff in from Beta1.  The problem is that a lot of the classes that you have mention have been move from the System.WIndows.Forms namespace to Microsoft.VisualBasic.ApplicationServices.  Also a lot of the configuration stuff will have changed.

  Ralph/Ed, this sounds like an installation error rather than a product problem.

  1. Did you see any errors during VS install
  2. Are your property pages registered Do you see the following entry HKLM\Software\microsoft\VBExpress\8.0\CLSID\{8998E48E-B89A-4034-B66E-353D8C1FDC2E}  (this is the VB application property page)

  Thanks,

  Same exact problem... Waiting for an answer....lol   When we goto the menu under project and click on properties nothing happens... it acts like you did nothing at all... Everything work fine though other then that feature. I don't get those errors though... I just simply cant access the project properties to change the settrings...ie, splash screen,etc;

  Ok thanks...got it working now..these were the steps and scenario that I have and did...
  
  xp pro
  
  Uninstalled - Visual Studio.NET Standard Edition
  (2002 Version I think)
  
  Uninstalled everything the list said to...(the list that was on the download section of vbExpress 2005 download page.)
  
  Re-downloaded and re-installed beta 2
  
  
  That did the trick.... Thanks for your response though.. I almost gave up hope on it..

  Ralph,
  
  You need to provide more information.
  
  Why can't you enter your project settings Have you turned your computer on Have you installed Visual Basic Express  See, without more information (such as errors messages, etc) and a bit of context, noone will be able to help you.

  Sorry, here is more info:
  
  I'm using Win XP Pro SP2 with MS Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition Beta2 (and Beta1 uninstalled as recommended). When trying to rightclick at the WindowsApplication1 and select Properties, no dialog or something appears. Nothing is happening then.
  
  The errors while trying to build a beta1-project are:
  
  Error    1    Type 'System.Windows.Forms.WindowsFormsApplicationBase' is not defined.    C:\Documents and Settings\...\My Project\MyApplication.vb    17    18    WindowsApplicationBeta1
  Error    2    'AuthenticationMode' is not a member of 'Forms'.    C:\Documents and Settings\...\My Project\MyApplication.vb    20    24    WindowsApplicationBeta1
  Error    3    'ShutdownMode' is not a member of 'Forms'.    C:\Documents and Settings\...\My Project\MyApplication.vb    23    32    WindowsApplicationBeta1
  
  (the documentlocation is replaced)
  
  I hope I've provided enough information...
