Hi All,
I have created a custom IP 2010 form – I noticed when
creating a code behind file the development IDE would be VS2005 despite it not
being installed on my machine. I started implementing my functionality in
VS2005 and paid little heed to this issue which now has become a problem for me.
PROBLEM
I need to deploy my custom IP 2010 as a solution package – In
order to deploy the form I followed some blogs that wanted to add VSTA 2010 feature
from Office 2010 installation. I made sure VSTA 2010 was installed on my
machine – I took following steps to ensure VSTA 2010 was installed:
·
Add new features to Office 2010 Installation
o
Drill down to VSTA under Office InfoPath 2010.
o
Choose Run From My Computer
o
Click Continue Button
This would install VSTA 2010 I suppose – for some weird
reason I think VSTA 2010 is not getting installed properly; instead VSTA 2005
is being installed. I followed this blog to migrate my solution to VS 2010:

The other solution I tried was backing up existing VS2005
solution and convert it to VS 2010 (by opening the existing projects). All workarounds
have failed – please advise which approach should I use? Is VSTA 2010 available
online for download?
Thanks in advance.
NB: I have ONLY Office Professional Plus 2010 installed on my machine
