Hi,

I use V 2012.1 WPF successful under WinXP, Win7 (32, 64).
Under Window 8, I receive a NullReferenceException.
.Net FW4.0 Client is installed.
Your Designer.Wpf.exe runs correct.

What can I do?

Hello,

We couldn't reproduce the issue.
Please check the last version.

Thank you.

Hi,

I can't check the last version, because I was I customer of you until 2012.1. I must deliver this version to my customers.
I have replaced he exception in the OP with a more detailed version.

I think there is a conflict between FW3.5 (Your Designer) and 4.0 (my App). If I write in the *.config for your Designer.Wpf.exe:
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v2.0.50727"/>
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0"/>
</startup>

it runs fine. If I exchange this both entrys, it crashs with the exception above.
My App is compiled for FW4.0, the *.config must have V4.0 an first! In other words:
How can I achieve, that Sti "finds" FW V3.5 and my App FW4.0?

Hello.

We transferred the Reports.Wpf product to .NET Framework 4.0. It will be good if you will upgrade to the latest release. Then there will be no conflict.

Thank you.
