compile errors

[Gerhard]

I posted this on the Visual Studio group, but no answer, so am trying this one.

I have a project that I have been working on for a number of years, expanding
and enhancing it. I started it with Visual Studio 2005 and then moved to
Visual Studio 2008 when it came out. All has been working very well.
Recently, I wanted to move the project to a new computer, so I installed
Visual Studio 2008 (and any upgrades) and moved my project over (it is a
vb.net web application). When I try to compile it, I get all sorts of errors
such as asp:TextBox is an unknown object (as well as every other .net
object). This is with the exact same code that compiles and runs without
error in Visual Studio 2008 on my original machine. Can you tell me what
would cause this? Do I have to install Visual Studio 2005 also as it was
what the project was originally developed under?

Thanks.

Could you post the exact error message for the more frequent error you
get...

Also have you tried to create a new project and see if it works ? It would
likely allow to see if this is a project related issue or if you have a more
general problem...

Hello Gerhard,

Firstly, I suggest you post to microsoft.public.vstudio.general. This
section is not specific for it.

You can create a new project for it to see if it encounters the same error
as the previous post said. Maybe the compiler hasn't been ready for it.

Thanks. Traced it down to the project using the .net 2005 release of Crystal
Reports that was messing it up.

Hello Patrice,

Please run "Devenv.exe /ResetSkipPkgs" in Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt.
It will reset the packages in VS2005. It will clear all packages which have
issues. Then you can check your project again to see Crystal Reports status
and if the error is resolved.

You can also try other command to recover the status of VS2005:

Hello Patrice,

Thanks but I'm not the OP ;-)

Did you try my suggestion? Is the issue resolved?

From an earlier response it seems Gerhard had an incorrect reference to
Crystal Reports...
