Any help or insights appreciated. This is for the WinForms library for VS2008.
When I try to create a new Telerick project, or convert an existing project, it fails. I'll paste in the error log below.
Yes I know VS2008 is old and I should be using a newer version, but 2008 has features I really like, esp the MDI editor.
What I've tried (suggested from Progress support folks) :
- Uninstalled, reinstalled
- Uninstalled, manually uninstalled the DLLs from the GAC, reinstalled, rebooted
Thanks for any assistance
