I close the error window and VS2008 opens and the toolbox items are created.  How do I get the menu installed?  I have tried reinstalling.

Thanks,

I am probably not going to be much use here but have you tried running VS as the Administrator? I use VS2008 on Vista and have had to do that on some occasions. In fact, even if you have I would go a step further and try temporarily turning your Vista UAC off before trying again.

Another possibility could be your VS IDE default settings have become corrupt. You can reset these by running DEVENV.EXE with the /ResetSettings command line switch. The only potential problem here is some add-ons will have to be re-installed afterwards.

Hope this helps.
