Hi Keith.

Thanks a million before taxes!

FWIW, I never change framework code either - people who do tend to get locked out of upgrades If I need something to behave alittle differently, I just create a subclass...

Project Properties-Compile Tab-Advanced Compile Options Button-Target Framework is at the bottom

Hi Keith.

I hate to sound stupid here, but what do I need to change to get SF to target version 3.5?

http://forum.strataframe.net/Topic30169.aspx?Keywords=vs2010%20SP1

I had to change the target framework for SF source to 3.5 for the reasons in my post above. That fixed me.

MAJOR WAAAHHHHHH!!!!

I unistalled SP1, VS2010, reinstalled VS2010 and still no joy. I think that this message:

is telling me that I am in some sort of dll hell but I do not know how to resolve it. Can you help me out? I am dead in the water until I can get this issue resolved.

OK Marcia.

Let us know if you need any further assistance.

Hi Ivan.

FYI - I was just googling around and I found this which seems to be the cause of my problems:

http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/651546/microsoft-sqlserver-smo-could-not-be-resolved-because-it-has-an-indirect-dependency-on-the-framework-assembly-system-core-version-3-5-0-0#details

I am going to downgrade my Visual Studio 2010 installation (this application is working with SQL Server 2005) and see if this fixes the problem.

I will keep you posted on results.

Thanks for all of your help!

ROF,L and LOL!!! When I take my stupid pills, they really work effectively

Well, I followed your instructions and still no joy. I wonder if this message is trying to tell me what the problem is and I just don't understand what it is trying to tell me:

Do you know what this is trying to tell me?

Open two instances of Windows Explorer. Navigate to the SF DLLs in one and to the Windows\assembly on the other. Drag the DLLs from the SF folder to the GAC.

Hi Ivan.

OK - I lied LLast message before I am outta here.

I cannot copy the dll to the GAC. These are the only options available to me when I right-click are View, Uninstal and Properties. Pressing Ctrl+V doesn't copy it either....
