    From the start, I have went though the check list to make sure everything was removed, but the problem is still there



  • IvanHB

    I keep getting the same message no matter what Express Edition program I go into. All I try to do is go to designer view of Form1.vb on a new project I am trying to work on.

    Lawrence,

    What are you trying to do when this error occurs Without more context, it's pretty difficult to determine your problem. Can you recreate this consistently What are the steps to reproduce it

    Has it done this consistently since you first installed Express, or is this a recent problem It sounds like an installation problem - I know there were issues if you had previously installed the Beta and didn't fully remove it.

    I doing the same as RaptorTech, just trying to add anything to the form. It is consistent, I have unloaded and reloaded a couple of times.

    My guess is that you missed something in uninstalling the Beta. From the error message, it sounds like the VSPackage for the Windows Forms designer isn't getting registered properly, possibly due to an artifact from the Beta.

    The folowing thread in the Express Editions forum may be of help:
