                Posted - Mar 30 2009 : 02:53:33 AM  Hi 
  A long shot maybe .
  I installed VAX 1721 , and suddenly my Red Gate SQL Prompt has thrown a wobbler, I am not sure if its related 
  The error I get refers to COMobjetcs
  Any chance it can be related .
  I have unistalled VAX (Why is it sio difficult ??) and reisntalled but teh problem persists .
  These 2 have co existed happily for years , is this related to changes in 1721 , or may be its just coincidence
  the error I get is 
  VAX 1721 , VS2008 Sp1 , SSMS 2005 Sp2,XP sp2
  System.ApplicationException: Exception within progress task ---> System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextManager.Interop.IVsTextView'.

                Posted - Mar 31 2009 : 11:45:58 AM  I have just uninstalled VA 1721 on a winXP machine where the network card has been disabled, so it has no network or internet access at all.
  Internet Explorer was loaded by the uninstaller, but it simply produced a "cannot display the webpage" error, and I closed the window.  The uninstall continued quite happily.
  I am not sure why you had such problems uninstalling, that should not have happened.
  I am glad you found the cause of this problem and fixed it. |

                Posted - Mar 31 2009 : 06:12:25 AM  Hi 
  All is well , it was a trashed registry setting which Red Gate had come across before  
  Uninstalling VAX needs an internet connection or so it seems , as you start the un-install, it diverts to a page asking why etc. on my Home PC I do not have internet , (Too many Rolex watch adverts & SPAM) so it just hung when it tried to get to the page. Eventually I used my 3G Modem to get around it.
  Being such a stunning product I had never tried to uninstall before 
  PS BIG FAN , back to checking out 1721
 
  Cheers
  Mike

                Posted - Mar 30 2009 : 11:29:40 AM  Is the IDE crashing, or is this just an error message, and the IDE carries on working?
  I don't understand your comment about being difficult, uninstalling VA is quite easy, at least it is when I uninstall it.
  If the IDE is crashing or hanging could you attach a new instance of the IDE and save out a mini dump file please?  This might give some clues as to the nature of the problem.
