Can't Create New Excel Project Visual Studio 2013 Office Tools The Project Cannot Be Created
I am having this issue on two computers. If I try to create an Excel 2013 Workbook C# in new projects, and choose create a new workbook, it starts to open Excel, and then I get this error in VS
I have tried:
Uninstall & Reinstall of VSTO from the Visual Studio Installer
Uninstall & Reinstall of Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate, (manually removing anything with visual studio that was left over)
Manually turning on the add-on Visual Studio Tools for Office Design-Time Adapter for Excel
Installing VSTO by hand
Enabling Macros
Running VS as administrator
Uninstalling & Reinstalling Office 2013 Pro Plus OLP
I have made this change to excel:
Like I said, this problem occurs on TWO pc's. I have tried 2013 Visual Studio R1 and R2. Does anyone have any ideas?
Edit 3-1-2015
There is still no answer to this, I have tried target frameworks:
4.0
4.5
4.51
And Running as Administrator. Recently I upgraded to the CTP of Visual Studio 2015 Ultimate and the same problem exists.
Thanks for the reply.
The issue is not reproducible for me and I can confirm this not a known issue. We might need to do deeper troubleshooting at the repro machines.

Can I use ReportViewer 2010 from Visual Studio 2013
Hi
I wish to use the 2010 version of the ReportViewer control on a Windows form. This is from within Visual Studio 2013. How would I do this?
ThanksGood idea. It did allow me add version 2010 to the Toolbox. You can see it as the second ReportViewer in the screenshot below.
But I can't drag it onto a form. It just appears down the end. Any idea why I can't drag it onto the form? -
Unsupported: This version of Visual Studio does not have the project types
I recently created a new virtual machine with the exact same step-up as my previous virtual machine. When I open my .sln files i get the following message:
Here are the spec for VS 2012Hi,
Based on the message, the VS Pro 2012 on your new VM does not support that project type. So what type of Visual C# project is the WriteToJS project? Which edition of Visual Studio did you create this project from? What .net framework is this project targeted?
Please make sure this VS supports such project in order to work with this project fine in VS Pro 2012.
I recommend that you check whether the same project template exists from File->New->Project->Visual C# in VS2012 Professional with Update 4 on the new VM. If the same project template exists, please create a new project to check whether the template
project can be created successfully.

Visual Studio 2013 deploying incorrectly the content types of a document library
Hello everyone.
I created a SharePoint farm solution in VS 2013. I add four content types (say, C1, C2, C3, C4, based on the Document content type) and I create a couple of document libraries (say, L1, L2). Now I add C1 and C2 to L1, and add C3 and C4 to L2.
When I deploy the solution from VS, I go to the site and found out that L1 has C1 and C2, as expected. However, L2 has C1 and C2 instead of C3 and C4.
I have reviewed for hours the xml files (Elements, Schema, etc.) and all IDs seem to be correct and all properties are in order.
Has anyone come across a problem like this? Any thoughts will be really appreciated, as I'm clueless and frustrated at this point, after hours of dealing with this problem.
Thanks in advance!
Best regards

Galería de ejemplosHi Sohel, thanks for your reply.
No, I don't add them programmatically, I added the "Content Type" and "List" items to the VS solution. It generated some files, including Elements.xml and Schema.xml. Then I used the integrated VS designers to add the content types to
the list. A very run-of-the-mill solution, I think, nothing too fancy.
One thing I noticed is that I created a feature, and everytime I add a new list, instead of using the existing feature, it creates a new one, which I delete, and then add the list to the existing feature using the designer.
Finally, something weird happened today. I opened my VS, opened the solution and there was several feature files created out of the blue by the VS. I thought something was messed up with the Visual Studio Online connection, but it happens anyway when working
in disconnected mode.

Hi
we do have the following situation
on computer A there is a Excel Document Addin development project , Visual Studio 2012, Office 2010 installed. All works fine.
we would like to bring the project to another machine with Visual Studio 2012, but Office 2013 installed.
Visual Studio can not build the project. It says that the application is not installed on the machine (though Excel 2013 is installed , but not Excel 2010) It seems to have a problem with the
vbproj.
In other forums I found a hint that "Hostpackage = ..} needs to be set accordingly in the vbproj. I created then a "empty Excel-Addin project" under Visual Studio , looked at
the Hostpackage entry, put that into the vbproj of "problem project. It still does not work.
It would be great if anyone could help.
ThomasHello Eugene
Problem is that it says that projectboard (the name of the main project) can not be loaded. All other projects in the solution can be loaded. Strange thing is , now that I try to create a empty excel Project it says that according to Excel security settings
it can not be generated !?
I opened then Excel and set all Trust Center settings to "Default" - but no effect. I really have no idea what is wrong ..!?

Library not registered error in Visual Studio 2013.
Whenever I attempt to build a solution, build multiple projects, or even run a program (with debugging) in visual studio 2013, I receive the error below.
"Library not registered. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8002801D (TYPE_E_LIBNOTREGISTERED))"
I have attempted to fix this by repairing my Visual Studio installation, but without success.
I believe the issue to be with Visual Studio itself, though, because this happens with every solution I have tried it with.
Any assistance in resolving this issue would be most appreciated.Hi ndowney,
Based on your issue, could you please tell me if you install some other tools on your machine before you get the ""Library not registered" error?
(1) If yes, please you disable or un-install these tools and then build solution/project check this issue again.
(2)If no, to check if the issue is related to the VS IDE, please refer the following steps to check this error message.
(2.1) I suggest you could try the following commands to check if it is helpful.
a. Run devenv /Safemode to see if you can apply it correctly. This can eliminate the possibility that third party Add-ins or packages are causing problems.
b. Run devenv /Resetsettings to eliminate the cause of corrupted settings.
c. Run devenv /ResetSkipPkgs in Command Prompt.
If above still cannot work, try use this command again: devenv /resetsuerdata
(2.2) If the above suggestion still could not help you, maybe you will need to re-install the VS2013 and then check this issue again.
If you have any latest message about your issue, please tell me.

and works fine and I can't figure out what is wrong with visual editor.
Thank you in advance.Here are libraries http://1drv.ms/153lGSe
I can normally use them in XAML and in c# code behind, everything is working fine in my app after compilation, I just can't see it in design editor. Errors are:

Windows 7 with SharePoint 2013 Foundation and Visual Studio 2013
Hi,
I am begginer with Sharepoint 2013 Foundation.
My company installed Sharepoint 2013 Foundation on a virtual Server. I installed
Visual Studio 2013 on my local computer. Also i created a developer site.
Based on http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj220047(v=office.15).aspx#RDOverview I installed Office
Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013 on my local computer.
I am trying to remotely develop apps
with Visual Studio 2013. In the option What SharePoint site do you want to use for debugging your App? i put the url
of developer site.
First of all, i had to choose if the apps will be SharePoint-hosted or Provider-hosted apps. Based on http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/fp142379(v=office.15).aspx and http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/fp142381(v=office.15).aspx,
i decided to followed SharePoint-hosted because is the only type that applies to SharePoint 2013 Foundation.
I followed the steps of http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/fp142379(v=office.15).aspx, which is the quide for How to:Create a basic SharePoint-hosted app. In Step 10 for deploy my app i get the following error:
Error occurred in deployment step 'Install app for SharePoint': Failed to install app for SharePoint. Please see the output window for details.
What is the problem?
Also, the visual studio need to be installed on the server where sharepoint was installed?
Moreover, do I need app catalog for testing and deploy apps?
thanks, AphroditeHi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you have an issue about creating app.
Per my knowledge, the issue is caused that you don’t configure the app catalog URLs from the central administration.
It means that we should create an App site catalog site collection to hold our Apps.

Visual Studio 2013 - New Project
Hi
Many years ago I wrote a VB6 program for school students for diet analysis in terms of energy and a range of vitamins and minerals. It drew comparisons against the national guidelines. Results were tabulated, graphed and output provided in Word
and Excel files. The VB6 program used an Access database containing about 850 foods. It has been used by quite a few schools and appears to always be used across a network.
My intention is to re-write the whole program in Visual Studio 2013 using Visual Basic code. I intend to refresh the whole program and add a wider range of foods and update the comparisons using the latest national guidelines and food label formats.
This will be my first attempt at Visual Studio and I intend to use a Windows Forms Application approach. The data used is "static" - it does not change it is simply a "read only" file - get the data, multiply for mass and add up each
category (energy, vitamins and minerals). It is a "file of data" rather than a true database. In reality a 1000 food data file should only be about 200 Kbytes. As an Excel file it is only 150Kbytes but as an Access file it is bloated
up to a 550Kbyte file.
The program is not sophisticated, so, should I be using a WPF Application or a Window Forms Application? The WFA just feels a bit more familiar than a WPF. Also, the program is intended for loading onto a network at some schools or on a stand-alone
computer.
My greatest concern is about the choice of approaching the data. A "true" database is not needed because the data is simply for about 1000 rows of food each with about 20 columns of data (numeric and text). The Access file is simple
but I could create an mdf file (I think) but would that be an advantage? With the Access data I appear to have loaded the file and created a DataAdapter and I have experimented with GetData() which works. My attempts to use ExecuteReader() failed
completely. Is there a better approach? such as SQL "DataTable.Rows(RowPosition)(“column name")”?? It seems a very sophisticated method for a small file of data.
The Access Database that I have experimented with in VS2013 appears to use Jet Drivers???? which proved to create a few problems for installations in the past. Should I be using an mdf file approach?? I will need to distribute the data in a "resx"
file. I could use SQL Server Management Studio (free download) and then use VS2013 to read the Access file and build a new mdf database.....
I am not convinced that I have the best solution. Any comments and suggestions would be very greatly appreciated.
Many thanks for reading this far.

Keith,
I intentionally truncated that post with “let me know when you’re that far along” simply because it’s very easy to get lost
with a concept that’s new. This isn’t as different as you might think though – you’ve been using a database, and now you’ll be using instances of a class (various ones).
Over the years here, I’ve seen many times where people use databases because they assume “that’s the only way to do it”. The
“it” actually being encapsulation.
Encapsulation
is what they need and certainly a database provides that (and a lot more), but it’s not the only way it can be done.
Think about this a bit: A DataRow encapsulates the related data for whatever it is. For example maybe it’s a person’s data –
you’d want to keep the person’s first name, surname, and things like that all together because it defines something related to that one person. You then have a collection of those DataRows in a DataTable.
In much the same way, what I have here is similar: Instead of a DataRow, I’m using instances of a class. Instead of columns
in a DataRow, I’m using properties of the instance, and instead of a DataTable, I’m using a List(Of Class).
…the concept is identical.
Classes are a means of building an object in OOP. In and of itself, it’s really just a template or a blueprint (overused metaphor).
Deborah Kurata put it best, in my opinion, when she said that a class is like a cookie-cutter and the objects created are cookies. You eat the cookies, not the cookie-cutter!
A class works that way exactly: You can’t “consume” a class; you consume the objects (instances) created by them and in this
case, like a DataTable housing DataRows, I’m storing them in a very specific type of collection known as a List(Of T).
I don’t want to get too far adrift about classes and/or OOP here – not that I would mind the discussion – but it’s a new concept
to you and it’s easy to get confused about what’s doing what. I’ll get more to the specifics next.
That entire class library is the data layer; it doesn’t work with controls of any sort, only the data.
That said though, in the following I’ll explain how controls can be ‘assisted’ by the methods in the classes.
The main class in this is the one called “FoodComposition”. That one is only barely started – the
only
method in it so far is an overloaded way to add a new instance to a list of them.
Two of the classes are really just ‘supporting classes’ – those being the ones called “FoodCategory” and “LabelNote”. Don’t
get me wrong here, they do have methods in them (with more to be added), but you won’t too much be working with those in the user’s program – you will in the program that I’ll create for you to add/modify/remove* and so on, but for now let’s set those two
aside.
* The fact that these are “supporting” classes, I have it set up such that you cannot remove an instance of those if there’s
a reference to them in FoodComposition. If you want to see where/how I’m doing that, look at the code of the class FoodCategory, for example, and go to line 633, then read the code of that method named “Remove”.
The one class in the bunch which is pretty much self-contained is the one called DietaryReferenceValue (DRV is the name you
used). That one makes for a good topic to explain how I can provide methods which lend a helping hand to your controls but don’t, directly, have anything to do with controls.
I have a method in that class named “GetAllGroupNames” which is a function that returns a string array containing the names
of each instance’s group. That might be used, for example, if you wanted to show a ListBox or a ComboBox to allow the user to select one of the group names:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles MyBase.Load
Dim url As String = _
"http://www.fls-online.com/VBNet_Forum/12-13-14/NutritionData.xml"
GetNutritonData(url)
ListBox1.Items.AddRange(NutritionData.DietaryReferenceValue.GetAllGroupNames(drvList))
End Sub
So, for example, when the user selects one of them:
Private Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
Try
If ListBox1.SelectedIndex > -1 Then
Dim selectedGroup As String = _
ListBox1.Items(ListBox1.SelectedIndex).ToString
Dim drv As NutritionData.DietaryReferenceValue = _
NutritionData.DietaryReferenceValue.GetInstance(drvList, selectedGroup)
MessageBox.Show(drv.ToString, drv.SexAndAgeGroup)
End If
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show("An error occurred:" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & ex.Message, _
"Program Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, _
MessageBoxIcon.Warning)
End Try
End Sub
As you can see there, I’m using the .ToString method which I have overridden in the class. That’s also part of what I wanted
to discuss: What it gets.
Currently I don’t have much else (other than maintenance routines like adding, removing, renaming) in there; the methods that
you use are methods that I set up – but in the words of Hamlet, “therein lies the rub” … I don’t know what you want!
Give some thought to just what methods you might want to have in there. For example maybe you might want to have a method which
will return the value of one specific nutrient which you specify. I can do that, I just don’t know yet that you want it so it’s not there.
Quite often I’ll also provide what I’m come to call “convenience properties”. For example with the property named “Sodium”,
I might have another property (read-only) named “Sodium_String” which returns a string in whatever format you wanted it to have.
These are things I don’t know that you want and also things which you may not have known can be done, thus this writing. ;-)
The other day I asked about units. It may not be where you want to go with this but I’d also like to offer that we can provide
more granularity to the nutrients themselves. Don’t get me wrong, it’d be an overhaul of what I have right now, but I’ll do it if you want to proceed:
Imagine that we have a class, all by itself, that we call “Nutrients”. At the very least that class would have members like
Name and UnitOfMeasure, but it could have anything else you wanted. An example that comes to mind might be the URL to a page on Wikipedia about it, or maybe a URL to an appropriate image or … whatever you dream of here.
So then when using them in the other classes, “Calcium” would, itself, be an object which has a name (“Calcium”), a unit-of-measure
(maybe “milligram”), and so on.
It’s a lot to take in all at once and even this is something you may want to reread, but do give it thought. Let me know what
methods you want in the classes which will help you in your user’s program.
Still lost in code, just at a little higher level. -
Visual Studio 2013 is creating new feature every time new list definition is added
We are using Visual Studio 2013 and details are as under:
Microsoft Visual Studio Ultimate 2013
Version 12.0.30501.00 Update 2
We we add a new list definition in our project, it creates a new feature with it. If we delete the feature and add list definition in the existing feature, list is created but columns are not added in the list.
Same thing happened if we rename "Feature1", a new feature is created every time a new list definition is created.
This doesn't happen when we add a Visual WebPart.
Also, we have three different custom list option in the drop down in new list creating wizard.
Is this a bug or we are doing something different.
http://farhanfaiz.wordpress.comIntellisense has a bug in VS2013 where it doesn't recognize InitializeComponent when you start working on the XAML. My feeling is that if you try to compile this app, it will run fine (as long as there are no actual errors).

NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with undefined

Evaluation period has ended trying to create a BizTalk project in Visual Studio 2013 ultimate
Hi,
I am doing a proof-of-concept with BizTalk, and I am using evaluation versions of everything involved, SQL server 2012 SP1, Windows server 2012, Visual Studio 2013 R2 and BizTalk 2013 R2.
All worked (relatively speaking) until I finally came to creating a BizTalk project in Visual Studio 2013 R2.
I installed the relevant BizTalk components on that machine (windows 8.1 32-bit, non eval) and then I get the BizTalk evaluation period has ended error message.
I am sort of stumped, I have a long while left on the evaluation period on all involved software, anyone knows what this is about?Hi,
Try repairing the BizTalk installation.
