when i try to build the application it gives me an error ->
error 1706. no valid source could be found for product visual studio .NET
professional. the windows installer cannot continue. what can be the
problem.

thanks in advance

Hi Jassi,

I have never seen this error, but a couple of things to try:

a) Silly but just to be safe - make sure your edition of VS .NET supports
setup and deployment projects
b) Make sure you have excluded the .NET Framework MSM module from the
installation
c) Try to repair VS .NET, it might be that registration for some VS .NET
components has been lost.
