When attempting to use the wizard, the wait message window and the form initially appear and then the form dissappears leaving the wait message window running.

Thank you for the great support.

Jeff

If you have not updated yet, make sure you have the latest beta release and let it update the SF database.

I will send you a custom Extensibility assembly that you will want to drag into the GAC and copy to the c:\Program Files\Common Files\MicroFour\StrataFrame folder.  Then go back into Visual Studio, run the wizard, and it should show you the red exception dialog with the stack trace and error.

Where should my reference paths for my project be pointed to?

C:\Program Files\MicroFour\StrataFrame\Assemblies

or

C:\Program Files\Common Files\MicroFour\StrataFrame

Could you give the a link to the latest StrataFrameSetup.exe so that I can make sure I have the current version on my machine.

Thanks,

Jeff

http://www.strataframe.net/downloads/strataframesetup.exe

This is what I did.  I installed the StrataFrameSetup.exe attached to the link you sent me.  Then I copied the Extensibility.dll into the GAC, Common/Stataframe and Strataframe/Assembly folders.  Open my solution, added a new SF form, placed the SF listview on the form and launch the PopulationDataSourceSettings wizard.  I still get the same behavior and I do NOT get the red exceptions dialog box.  Also, I now get the error below when trying to run my program.  I have the updated DevExpress 8.1.6 version of the controls which were working fine before I installed this SF.exe.  Unfortunately, I am stuck until I get this resolved.  Thanks so much for the help.

FYI on the previous post.  The error only shows when you are loading a form that has an Strataframe wrapped DevExpress XtraEditors controls on them.

Thanks,

Jeff

Looks like you need to rebuild the SF Dev-Express Wrapper to match your version of Dev Ex.

How do I do that?

Thanks,

Jeff

I have not done this before.  So what source code file do I download?

Source Code 1.6.5 or 1.6.6 Beta.

To be clear about what I do in VS 2005. I open the project file "MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI" in VS 2005.  Perform a search and replace within the project for version 8.1.1 to be replaced by 8.1.6.  Rebuild the solution to recreate the DLLs.  Is this correct?

Thanks,

Jeff

I have just reposted the 1.6.6 beta source code.  So get the 1.6.6 source from the My Account area.

I have replaced all of the DevExpress references in the MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI.vbpro to current version 8.1.6 and rebuilt the solution.  I am getting the following error and warning in the Error List within VS 2005 IDE:

Error 1 The command ""C:\Program Files\MicroFour\StrataFrame Source Code\MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI\AfterBuild.bat" "C:\Program Files\MicroFour\StrataFrame Source Code\MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI\bin\Release\MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI.dll" "C:\Program Files\MicroFour\StrataFrame Source Code\MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI\bin\Release\MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI.xml"" exited with code 9009. MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI

What do I need to do to eliminate these?

Thanks,

Jeff

Here are couple of previous posts I was looking for some help on:

The Solution Preferences dialog box is not showing when I select it from the Strataframe->Solution Preferences menu within VS2005.  What do I need to do to get this to display?

When attempting to use the Listview's PopulateDataSourceSettings Wizard, the wait message window and the form initially appear and then the form dissappears leaving the wait message window running.

I included both posts in this one, because I thought they might be related.

Thanks,

Jeff

When you installed the recent beta release, did you also updated the SF database?, if not, then re-run the setup and let it update the SF database.

Yes. I have updated the SF databases.  However, thank you for the suggestion.

Do you know when I will be getting the error trapping extensibility to show the exception dialogs on these two features? 

Also, I am having errors when loading any SF/DevExpress VS Templates probably due to the fact I am using the latest version (8.1.6) of the DevExpress controls.  Do you know when you will have all of the SF/DevExpress stuff updated to work with this latest version?

FYI.  I am still using VS 2005.

Thanks,

Jeff

Good news.  At Edhy suggestion, even though I thought I updated the SF database structures, I decided to do another reinstall of SF making sure it doesn't skip updating the SF database.  Now the Solutions Preferences and the listview's PopulationsDataSourceSettings wizard is now working. 

Sorry about the confusion.

Thanks,

Jeff
