On my workstation in the About MS Visual Studio, I show that I am running Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team Explorer Vers ...Show All

• Windows Forms GAC Assembly not present until after reboot

  I'm using VS 2005 and a custom installer class. I deploy a public assembly to the GAC. I have a custom installer class which depends upon that GAC assembly.

How do I either (1) reboot before I run my custom installer class or (2) make my assembly appear in the GAC without requiring a reb ...Show All

  Hello, Thanks for reviewing my question.  I had VS.NET 2005 Beta 2 installed on my PC and decided to uninstall it (hopefully in order) in order to install the VS.NET 2005 (June CTP).

  We have SQL Server 2000, and SQL Reporting Services 2000. In order to design reports I just purchased (and installed) Visual Studio 2005, but can't get the Report Designer to install from the SSRS 2000 cd.

How do I make this work Thanks. I ...Show All
