I have never been able to get the upgrade add-in to work in VS2005. The AddIn log shows:
The upgrading process failed with the following error:Object reference not set to an instance of an object.Failure
Is there something I can do to make this work? Entering every dang project file into the standalone tool is a pain and of course it doesn't handle VCC checkout.
Does this work for anyone?
I am using 2008 v2 and I'm installing the latest hotfix...
If the Add-In generated an error log then this could really help us to track the issue down. I know that it's ultimately not the main focus of Infragistics (you guys are busy making the best .NET UI components known to mankind) but it sure is a handy tool.
Thanks Again

There doesn't seem to be a way to insert image directly into the forum, so here it is from one of the websites I worked on:
Please note that this isn't the original project with which I had the problem, but I'm having trouble with this one also. It, too, started life as a Visual Studio 2003 solution, went to 2005, and then 2008. It has seen several versions of Infragistics.
shaunhayward said: I built a simple project consisting of an Application and a DLL (with the DLL having a Windows Form in it).I put a bunch of 7.1 controls on the form, ran the add-in to move to 8.3, and it worked. So there must be something with my other solution. The solution that failed has 31 Windows projectors (including 7 applications and 24 DLLs), 2 web sites, and 5 setup projects. The DLLs may include Windows Forms, Windows Controls, and Crystal Reports files. The solution started out life as a Visual Studio 2003 project, was upgraded to 2005, and finally 2008. Much of the code has been ported from VB to C#. It has seen Infragistics controls dating back to 2005.The big thing is: where can I find the add-in log? The error message tells me to refer to it but I'm not sure where it is. Ideally, the log would tell me what's causing the issue. Thanks again- Shaun
