IE7 breaking Visual Studio 2003 ? [modified]
-
After some years without mayor problems, my Visual Studio 2003 began to crash every now and then when working on a ASP.NET-project. At the moment the intervals are keeping getting shorter (strange !). By now after every couple of lines of code I do a save not knowing when the next crash is coming up. Sometimes switching from code to design-view is enough... I get a error and VS 2003 quits and sometimes it just even vanishes without no message what so ever. This situation isn't workable anymore. I've done some reinstalls, but the problem stays. Then I realised I installed IE7 Beta some months ago ! Could this be the problem ? To uninstall IE7 could maybe solve the problem, but IE7 has major improvements over IE6, so I would like to keep it (as M$ will force us in a short while anyway :() Could IE7 really be the source for my crashes and has someone of you out there had similar problems AND maybe workarounds? Thx in advance. -- modified at 18:50 Saturday 25th November, 2006

Why are you still using IE7 Beta? I have a colleague who's using IE7 with ASP.NET 2003 and he's not had problems of this sort. Mind you he was formerly using the Beta and had no problems either. I suspect your problem is caused by something else.

At a guess I would say it won't be long before any new MS products that interact with the web (which is virtually everything) will mandate IE7 as a prerequisite. Does Office 2007? If not, VS 2007 is bound to require IE7.

I realise I still have Beta 3 on my system... Thought by now I would have the final version. Downloading it now, hope this helps. Thx to U all...
