I had a similar problem at the time of Hotfix 2.01... The solution was to run the configuration wizard again on the computer where VS 2005 is installed, and reboot it. I don't know what file is really modified during this re-configuration, but it solved the problem.
Thanks for the reply. Tried re-running configuration manager and reboot.
Still same. HELP please!
Seek and ye shall find ---
I was looking for ANYTHING that would prove to be a solution, and there's a context menu item found by right clicking in the empty toolbox area calld "Reset Toolbox."
That did the trick. Thanks for your earlier recommendation, too.
** Further research showed that this likely occurred when the original crashes were occurring (see post # 20893)
Try right-clicking on the toolbox in VS and select 'Reset Toolbox'.
