I extracted RoboticsConnection_Services_MSRS_1.5 to  Microsoft Studio Samples\Platforms and they ended up where there supose to.  I then go into

c:Microsoft Robotics Studio\(1.5)(samples\platforms\roboticsconnection in windows explore and double click on RoboticsConnection.

It starts up Visual C# and states"  The project file C:\Microsoft Robotics Studio (1.5)\samples\platforms\Roboticsconnection\SerializerServices\cf.serializerservices.csproj'

cannot be opened. The project type is not supported by this installation.

I tried opening this from VPL but it isn't a VPL program.

Just strugling trying to get things to work.

Newbee to all this .net programing

I have updated my firmware and my traxter has spun its wheels from my control.  I'm just trying to get this to work for me also.

Any ideas would be great.

Thanks,

Brad

Hi Brad,

The error you are getting is because the solution includes the cf.SerializerServices project, which evidently doens't work under Visual C# Express Editions.  All the other projects in the solution work, however.  So, you should be okay.   The cf.SerializerServices project is used for Windows CE, which uses the .NET Compact Framework.  We use these services with our Stinger CE Robotics Kit, since it comes w/ an eBox-2300, which runs WinCE.   It also comes with an evaluation copy of Visual Studio 2005.   If you were to open the solution up w/ Visual Studio 2005, you wouldn't see that message.

So, just ignore it, and since it's not in the list of projects to build by default, you should get a successful build. :)

Best Regards!

The error wasn't obvious, especially if you're new to Visual Studio and MSRS. :)  We've all been there are one time or another.

Best Regards!
