Hello, I have downloaded Samples for MS SQL Server 2005 and I don't know how to get an .exe file from files like ascmd.sln, ascmd.cs, ascmd.csproj. When I'm trying to launch an .sln file in Visual Studio there is an error like "The application for project C:\project_path\project_name is not installed". Do I need a C# compiler or something like that?
Best Regards
Hi, yes, you will need to compile the .CS file. The compilers are part of Visual Studio Express (download). You'll want the C# Edition.
One you have it installed, you can run the command "csc ascmd.cs" to compile. csc is located in %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\csc.exe
Alternatively, you can compile from the IDE. Just double click the .sln or .csproj file and the IDE will open. CRTL+SHIFT+B compiles. F5 runs.
Thev v3.5 will vary based on the version you install.
