The binary will fail to install if you have an OS with a different language than english. Just create the path C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\visualstudio\devices\7.1\ and copy the file OpenNETCF_SDF_1_0.xsl to the 7.1 folder. Then try reinstall the msi
Good luck

P.S. Excellent framework

Just figured that out myself on a german Win2k.

But I get an error which I´d like to have confirmed, I think it might also
be a language/version-problem:
I have a reference to OpenNETCF.Notification and am trying to set the LED
stat. When trying to debug I get the following error:

---8<---
Fehler: Die Abhängigkeit "mscorlib, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=969db8053d3322ac" in Projekt "prjLEDstate.Test" kann nicht in
das Ausführungsverzeichnis kopiert werden, da sie mit der Abhängigkeit
"mscorlib, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" in Konflikt stehen würde.
--->8---
Translation:
"Error: Dependancy "mscorlib, version..." in project "prjLED..." could not
get copied to executing directory, because it would conflict with dependancy
"mscorlib, version...".

Any suggestions how to solve this?

Because of the lack of resources available to us at OpenNETCF.org, we can
only support English installations. Our testing facilities can't stretch to
non-English installations.

I'm glad you like it

It seems that you are trying to link to the desktop version of MSCorLib

-- Comannd Prompt output --
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322>sn -q -T mscorlib.dll

Check the mscorlib reference in the Solution Explorer and make sure it's not
pointing to C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\mscorlib.dll

Thanks Neil,

I should have taken a look at this first. There was no reference to mscorlib
added to my project, so VS tried the desktop-version. After adding the
reference manually it works fine now!

Thanks for such great work

Out of interest, is this a Smart Device Application or an OpenNETCF
Application?

Neil,

it is a SmartDevice-Application... is there something I did not find yet?
*opens a new project*
Woops... found it. Some tweaking nessecary on german system (should be some
1031´s instead of 1033´s). I´ll have a look at it now.

What are the advantages of an OpenNETCF-application?

The OpenNETCF Application project templates are special because they will
already have all the necessary NET CF and SDF references and "using
...."/"Imports ..." statements. Also, they use our ApplicationEx class,
allowing you greater control over the Windows Messages that the application
will receive.

Installation on a non-English OS is not supported but you could try creating
the path "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\Microsoft\VisualStudio\Devices\7.1" and then running the installer
again.
