Are the latest expression tools covered under a Microsoft MSDN subscription? I know in the past they were not part of MSDN downloads. I think I remember someone saying they are available now. Are these trial editions or full-blown versions?
Yes, the full Expression toolset is now available from Subscriber Downloads.
I have VSTS Architecture Edition and I can download:
Expression Blend 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Design 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Encoder 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Media 2 (Mac) - DMG (English)
Expression Media 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Studio 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Web 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Blend 1 (English)
Expression Studio 1 (English)
Expression Web 1 (English)
Expression Web 1 Service Pack 1 (x86) - EXE (English)
However, the MSDN Subscription comparison page lists only Blend and Web under Architecture and Developer Edition. VSTS Team Suite is supposed to be required for Expression Studio.
The only ones I have available through my MSDN subcscription are Expression Blend 2 and Expression Web 2, so the entire suite is not standard to subscriptions but can be purchased. The Blend and Web are the full-blown versions.
Yes, I am also seeing the full Expressions Suit available from the Microsoft MSDN Subscription download site. These are the full version not trials.
I just checked and these are the programs available for download:
Expression Blend 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Design 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Encoder 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Media 2 (Mac) - DMG (English)
Expression Media 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Studio 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
Expression Web 2 (x86) - DVD (English)
But I have the Universal MSDN Subscription.

I have had a website up and running for over 3 years with SAP .net connector 3.0 in 32 bit format. Unfortunately the Windows 2003 server that was hosting this application has failed. Our network team has created a new Windows 2012 server, and request the website be re-written in 64 bit. I have successfully added the reference to the x64 version of sapnco dll's, but now when I try to compile website, I'm getting an error on my page directive.
The error is "ASP.NET Runtime error: Object reference not set to instance of an object"
None of the code itself (ECCDestConfig.vb and code behinds) does not show any errors. This error is appearing on the page directive of ALL my .aspx web pages in this project, even pages that don't call SAP.
I have set the configuration manager to use x64 as the active solution platform.
I am really stuck - and could use some help.
SAP .NET Connector needs Microsoft Visual C++ runtime of a specific version, which depends on both the .NET framework version and the version of the Operating System (32-bit or 64-bit).
According to the SAP official documentation, you need one of the followings:
NCo 3.0 32-bit (x86), .NET 2.0 (also 3.0, and/or 3.5): Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Pack (x86) (mscvp80.dll)
NCo 3.0 64-bit (x64), .NET 2.0 (also 3.0, and/or 3.5): Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Pack (x64) (mscvp80.dll)
NCo 3.0 32-bit (x86), .NET 4.0: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Pack (x86) (mscvp100.dll)
NCo 3.0 64-bit (x64), .NET 4.0: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Pack (x64) (mscvp100.dll)
Problem solved. I used VB in Visual Studio 2013 with the 64 bit SAP .nco . The problem was I had created a "website" not a new "project. Once I did, and loaded the SAP DLL's as references to the project, and changed the configuration to use x64, new web pages I added did so without error. I might note, I aslo installed SAP GUI 730 on the same server. Its working now, both interacting with SAP and a separate SQL database,
Thanks for your answer
To be able to execute the x64 dlls in VStudio, it must be verified that the project is being compiled also in x64. You have to go to Tools, Options ..., Projects and Solutions, Web Projects. And check "Use the 64 bits."
Have installed Visual Studio 2012 Pro on a Windows 8 Pro (Danish).
The problem is that all error messages now are in Danish! I remember that earlier I should just delete the Danish .net framework language pack, but there are not such a package any longer! (Like Configure visual studio to show error messages in english).
So how do I now get English error messages Again?
So, I bought into the dream in the form of a surface pro and then I installed Visual Studio 2010 in the hopes of coding on the toilet. However, I cannot get SP1 to install (from this link: here). Has anyone successfully installed SP1 on the surface?
The error I get is:
KB2736182 does not apply, or is blocked by another condition on your computer. Please see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=225649 for more details.
If you follow the link you'll see this gem:
"Product of the product family Visual Studio 2010 or Team Foundation Server 2010 with Service Pack 1 applied"
I am getting a few errors trying to download the new VS2012. Its a fresh install of windows 8 (did the windows update). I have tried not selecting all (no C++, lightswitch, blend, office tools)
I tried different mounting tools for the .ISO but no luck. VS2010 is still working. Running x86. Log file
Errors:
Critical: Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 x86 Minimum Runtime - 11.0.507 Cannot find the requested object.
Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Pre-Clean Tool Cannot find the requested object
Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 x86 Additional Runtime - 11.0.507 Cannot find the requested object.
Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Core Libraries, Team Foundation Server 2012, Microsoft Framework 4.5 Multi-Targeting pack.... and a few other ones cannot be found. Thanks!
Downloaded the web installer, and that seemed to work. It seems that the iso was corrupted as the MD5 did not match.
I need to install the Windows Embedded CE 6.0 package that works with Visual Studio 2005 because I need to upgrade an old driver that runs under CE 6.0. I understand that Microsoft does not support this CE package any longer and, in fact, they no longer provide the installation files for CE 6.0
Where can I get the Windows Embedded CE 6.0 installation files??? They can be in an ISO file or whatever format is available.
I'm not sure if I understood your question right. By package you mean BSP (Board Support Package)?
If you are new to CE, you will need a brief explanation before get started.
The Windows CE 6.0 itself doesn't have exactly installation files. The runtime system is built through a toolkit called Platform Builder. As "input" for platform builder, you select which components your runtime image will have (including drivers) and as "output" is created a binary image of your system. You may transfer your runtime image to the device with a few different methods.
Regarding drivers, they usually are distributed through BSPs. BSPs are built by the device maker so you could check the device manufacturer site for BSPs, but you can give a try first on the supported packages search (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/downloads/board-support-packages-for-windows-embedded.aspx).
You can get the Platform Builder Toolkit with a Microsoft Authorized Embedded Distributor or through a MSDN subscription (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/evaluate/how-to-buy-windows-embedded-compact-7.aspx). The Platform Builder for CE6 comes with a copy of VS2005.
Windows CE6 is currently at R3 (released in 2009) and it is supported (mainstream support) at least until 2014 (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/evaluate/windows-embedded-roadmap.aspx).
I strongly recommend you to take a look at least on http://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/develop/windows-embedded-ce-6-for-developers-overview.aspx. I'm not much experienced with CE6 (few months) but my personal experience says that it's a long path to code drivers for CE.
