Hi, last month I installed infragistics 2011.1 in my pc, and yesterday a coworker who came in to the project I'm on installed the same suite with the same installer I used.
when he tried to run our application he got an error telling him the version of Infragistics his using is diferent than the one thats defined in the project.
Using .Net reflector i got that my version of infragistics is 11.1.20111.1003 and my coworkers is 11.1.20111.2009.
Why did this happend? we used the same installer.
What can we do to correct this? Do I need to upgrade my version? and if yes, how can I upgrade?
Thanks in advanced....

Hello Gabriel,
From the build numbers, it sounds like you are using the Windows Forms product. I believe what happened here is that while using the platform installer, your coworker had the "check for updates" option selected while installing this product. When you ran the platform installer, there was no update available at that time for you to download, and therefore you received only the RTM version.
To upgrade, what you can do is run the platform installer again and modify your installation. Have the option to check for updates enabled, and it should find, download, and install the latest available service release.
If you'd prefer to not go through the platform interface, you could directly run the .MSP file your coworker downloaded. It should be available in the "Service Releases" subfolder where the platform executable is located. You can also go to the "My Keys and Downloads" section in the "My IG" menu option on the www.infragistics.com site to find and download the latest service release.
If you would prefer to have your coworker use build 1003, then he can go into Add/Remove programs, view his updates, and uninstall the update. This will roll him back to the RTM version.
If there are any further issues or questions, please let us know exactly which product is being used (Windows Forms, ASP.NET, WPF, etc) and what executable you are running in order to install it. We'll be able to provide more specific details from there.
The option to intall the latest Service Releases could easily be missed. Especially if you have serveral build servers the version is very essential so it would be nice to have this option deselected by default or "more visible". In general I'm not to happy with the new installer plattform. It looks nice but many things are not as clear as they could be.
