    Currently playing around with C# Express... gotta love the new editor and intellisense features. Does anybody experienced some (bigger) bugs so far?

    It won't install for me, the installer crashes when it goes to download the .NET Framework 2.0 beta. Signature under construction.

Then add a button or edit box and try to resize the control.

        I had similar problems. With mine, it downloaded everything, installed the .NET 2.0 beta, and rebooted my machine. When setup restarted after the reboot, it essentially became unresponsive. I was installing C# express, and selected to download the SQL Express and MSDN Express at the same time. After the first installer crash, I checked add/remove programs to ensure .NET 2.0 was actually installed. Then I downloaded and installed MSDN and SQL express manually, and then the C# express again. Looks like they're beta-testing their installers too :) -- Russell Morris "So, broccoli, mother says you're good for me... but I'm afraid I'm no good for you!" - Stewy

          Try downloading .NET Framework 2.0 Beta separately and see what happens. That is the way I downloaded mine. Here is the URL: http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/6/6/9666067a-660f-48e0-a755-a83a81036b67/dotnetfx.exe[^] Hope this helps. Happy Programming and God Bless!

            yes...but fortunately IMO "snap to lines" is better than SnapTo Grid... ;-)

                Thanks for the help, but now when it goes to download the IDE it crashes. Looks like they need some work on these installers still, its a shame, I would have liked to have been able to try it out. :| Signature under construction.

                  I had problems too, but I found a way to download it directly and it works like a charm. Works on all the products. 1. Run installer 2. open your local temp dir, look for the setup dir. 3. open baseline.dat 4. search for vs_setup.dll 5. Append the "fwlink" to go.microsoft.com, and open in browser 6. See the file download :) top secret xacc-ide 0.0.1
