Entity Framework Mailing List?
Hi All Is this list a good spot for EF questions? Or can you refer me to one? I find when I generate the SQL from my model, and then click on the SQL file in the solution, my project locks up and I have to kill the task. Any ideas Thanks Kirsten
RE: RadLangSvc.package did not load correctly
Hi Ian Greg Thanks for installing SP1 Strangely the error is no longer occurring - and I don't know why - as rebooting did not initially fix the problem. I still feel something is wrong with my installation - due to the problems I am having with Entity Framework. To install SP1 I downloaded a file from Microsoft called VS10sp1-KB983509.exe I will try looking for the web installer Thanks Kirsten _ From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com] On Behalf Of Ian Thomas Sent: Friday, 29 April 2011 2:18 PM To: 'ozDotNet' Subject: RE: RadLangSvc.package did not load correctly Kirsten, did you download from MSDN Subscriber downloads? Did you use the Web Installer? [1] I downloaded and applied SP1 to my VS2010 Professional yesterday after your post, and it went smoothly (Win7, 64-bit) - and VS still works! If you search on your error, and go to the Connect hits [2], it seems to me that it is due to files not copying from the install DVD (in the reports I read).

RE: uninstalling SP1
Ah, I had been uninstalling from control panel Luckily when I tried uninstalling from the install VS10sp1-KB983509.exe I got the same message but this time with a helpful looking link.
