"Unspecified error" error message using drag and drop

[mandrake1000]

I have been using Microsoft Visual Studio 2003 (.NET Framework 1.1) for a few months now without any problems. Today, when I try to drag and drop a DataSet from the Toolbox onto my WebForm, I keep getting a MessageBox with the error message "Unspecified Error". The same is true in all the projects I open. Can anybody suggest how I can rectify this situation? Many thanks.

While searching on the Internet I found this solution to my problem (in particular message 5 in the thread):

http://groups.google.com/group/micr...visual+studio"&rnum=23&hl=en#e506ee6909b41807

Instead of deleting the most recent .aspx pages one by one in Visual Studio, I tried deleting the most recent datasets I had defined one by one. The second dataset I deleted rectified the problem. I redefined the datasets I had deleted and everything is working as normal again.

Hope this helps anybody who has the same problem. Many thanks to all who took the time to view this thread.
