Default my Server Explorer is broken! - 09-01-2004 , 09:06 PM






Hi,

I am running XP SP2 with VS.NET 2003. I have not opened VS.NET for a
while. But today, I noticed that Server Explorer stopped working.

I can expand all the nodes, but it won't let me expand expand my SQL
Server instances nodes anymore, so I can no longer drag and drop tables
into typed datasets. Very annoying!

I have no clue if installing SP2 for XP did this. I tried repairing the
VS.Net install, didn't help. Also tried removing SP2. Didn't do much.

Anyone has an idea of what's going on?

Thanks!

Carl

I fixed it myself! And for the record... I reinstalled MDAC 2.8 with
the following method:

Thanks Jens and Usenet!
