Handling Telerik Upgrades

[m]

I'm curious how others are handling Telerik upgrades in their environment. We have multiple custom applications in our intranet environment using RC ASP.NET Q2 2008. When deciding to move to the later release for new applications, are you mandating that all older applications be upgraded or allow Telerik version inconsistencies?

I don't know why there is no answer for the question, actually, I am asking the same question.  Can anyone give us an answer?

Thanks,

Scott

Hi guys,

You may consider using the VSX Upgrade Wizard to perform automatic upgrade to the latest version of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX. Additionally, you can refer to the release notes and this topic from the online documentation regarding any changes made in the components:

I always just put an assembly binding in my webconfig...seems to be the smoothest way we've found to update the Telerik.Web.UI

<dependentAssembly>
    <assemblyIdentity name="Telerik.Web.UI" publicKeyToken="121fae78165ba3d4" culture="neutral"/>
