Ive downloaded and installed it all sucessfully and I started to play about with WPF however, I can't get it to compile. I keep getting the error:

Error 1 Required file 'alink.dll with IAlink3' could not be found

I have done some digging around online and saw that there was a workaround  that in the image file in the wcu\dotNetFramework\dotNetMSP\z86 folder there was 3 updates to install. Unfortunatley in mine there was only 2? i seem to be missing the following update

Windows6.0-kb930264-x86.msu

So i run the 2 updates and still the the error happens. Has anyone else had this issue or can some1 send me the 3rd update?

Yes I know its only a beta but would be good to play about with it. Oh I have it running on a Vista Business machine, might be of some use Tongue Out.

Thanks.

1) have you been to connect and seen if this bug has been reported?
2) if not have you filed a bug report?
3) can you post an example so we can try to reproduce the problem?

This error message occurs because the C# compiler is trying to embed a Vista manifest into your DLL.  I believe you can also work around this problem by doing the following.

Navigate to the properties page for the project.  At the bottom of the Application tab (should be selected) there is an label called "Manifest" and a combo box underneath that says "Embed manifest with default settings".  Switch that to "Create Application without a manifest".  I know that will work around the warning in VB and I'm pretty sure it will with C# as well.

Big Smile
