Installation / Compilation question

[seasider]

Hello, I bought and installed basic4ppc today and tried the first program in the tutorials, and the program works but as soon as I try to compile it I get the message

Error message "Cannot locate .Net Framework 2.0 files."

I get automatically transferred to a webpage with this message, I click the link
which takes me to a Microsoft website which leads me to download "dotnetfx.exe", problem is when I try to run that I just get a message that .net is already installed.

Can anyone point me in the right direction (I'm running Windows Vista)

Thanks :sign0085:

Hello seasider,

you have to install the Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 on your desktop.

Just look here!

Thanks for the quick replies, but still a problem,

I couldn't install Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 on the desktop,
as when I try to run dotnetfx.exe I get an error message
which says:

This product is already installed as part of the operating system


I also tried compiling from "my documents" and got the same problem.

Can you help further.

Thanks in advance

With Vista you will already have .NET 3.5 installed. Look and see if you have this path on your system

\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\csc.exe
ignore the space in exe, it's a forum artifact

If you don't, tell us what folders you have in

\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\

To agraham, Yes I have

\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\csc.ex e

but it's not part of the PATH displayed by the PATH command in a DOS shell?

thanks in advance again

It doesn't have to be part of the PATH.

Are you sure the message wasn't

Error message "Cannot locate .Net Compact Framework 2.0 files."

To agraham,

:sign0161: what a wally, my excuse is that I had been working since 6:00 am and it was late at night.

yes the error was

Error message "Cannot locate .Net Compact Framework 2.0 files."

When I downloaded the NETCFSetupv2.msi and installed that, it worked.:sign0060:

Thank you, much appreciated.

Thanks for all comments, now to learn how to use it.

I had the same problem with windows 7.
Installing NETCFSetupv2.msi solved the problem
