I downloaded Spark 1.1 release from http://sparkviewengine.codeplex.com/releases/view/27601 and cannot find the msi package for Visual Studio integration promised in docs.
Can anyone explain why?

A:
For VS2008 support, I'm not sure why it's not included in the latest downloads on codeplex, but you can still get the .msi from the download on spark downloads page.
For VS2010, the answer is a little bit more complicated. The short version though is that the visual studio editor changed drastically in VS2010 and the way the old plug-in was providing intellisence is no longer appropriate.

But Spark downloads page says that "Download assets have been relocated" and points to codeplex, where I cannot find any msi package. Thank you for the answer anyway.

The MSI was never available as a standalone download, it was included in the .zip download. There's this (http://sparkviewengine.codeplex.com/WorkItem/View.aspx?WorkItemId=5763) issue on codeplex so maybe 2008 integration doesn't work, or maybe it was just an oversight.

I used SparkVsIntegration-1.0.39935.0-release.msi from an earlier package for 1.1 and couldn't get it to work.

I was able to get the msi installed and working from 1.0.39935.0 with 1.1. I had to close and re-open VS and a few pages.
