Hi,
I have managed to install the r.a.d controls in the GAC and add the r.a.d control as a web part in a page. However, when I try to edit the content via 'Modify Shared Web Part -> Edit Content', I got the following error in the window:
Could not find a part of the path 'c:\windows\system32\inetsrv\~\RadWebParts\3.0.0.0__1f131a624888eeed\RadControls\Editor\ToolsFile.xml'.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'c:\windows\system32\inetsrv\~\RadWebParts\3.0.0.0__1f131a624888eeed\RadControls\Editor\ToolsFile.xml'.
However, when I edit the web part content using 'Enable in-page edit. It is okay. I am using MOSS B2 TR. Any advise?
Thanks.

The error you describe probably indicates that the RadWebParts directory doesn't exist in wpresources. Since you installed the web parts in the GAC, the editor looks for the RadWebParts dir in the global wpresources folder which is usually located in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\wpresources.
Navigate to this folder and check if the RadWebParts folder exists there. If it doesn't you may have to extract it from the .cab file manually.
Please note that MOSS is not yet supported by r.a.d.controls SharePoint Edition, but some people have reported success with installing r.a.d.controls on MOSS. We are currently working on official MOSS support and an announcement will be made when it's available.

Thanks for your prompt reply.
I can find the RedWebParts directory. The 'ToolsFile.xml' can be found in 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\wpresources\RadWebParts\3.0.0.0__1f131a624888eeed\RadControls\Editor'.
Do you have any indicative date for the support of MOSS? I have a client who is interested.

Hello Andrew,
As it was mentioned before, we are working on MOSS support. We are planning to release a beta version in a month.

Do you know the cause of the error referenced in the other question?

I did not manage to solve the earlier problem. Since the control for MOSS 2007 is already out, I have moved on to it. Never encounter this problem with it.
As Andrew already pointed out, we have a separate MOSS version of the editor now, which does not have this problem. Do not be concerned that the free MOSS editor is missing some features, since we will be releasing a full featured MOSS editor shortly (in April).

I opened the Central Administration page and clicked Operations -> Solution management and retracted radwebparts.cab, but I thought that would uninstall it (appearantly not, because its still listed).
I also installed the MOSS 2007 version of the RadEditor, however, the error still pops up: "The 'ToolsFile.xml' can be found" etc, etc, 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\wpresources\RadWebParts\3.0.0.0__1f131a624888eeed\RadControls\Editor'.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks - Steve
Did you try removing the 3.0 editor web part using the command line tool? I think this is the syntax:
stsadm -o deletewppack -name RadWebParts.cab
You need to make sure that the old version is uninstalled completely before you proceed with the MOSS editor install.
