.Net 2.0 problems with ink anyone?

I have one Tablet that is running the RTM of Visual Studio 2005 and .Net 2.0 and I can't get TabletPCBlog's ink control to show up on it.

Anyone else have this problem?

I saw on Channel9 a little hack that I guess is supposed to force IE to use .NET 1.1, but that didn't seem to work:

<configuration>
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v1.1.4322"/>
<startup>
<configuration>
I have TabletPCBlogs.com set as a trusted site. Any suggestions?

I don't here 2.0, so I can't talk to that, but you might take a look at the explicit internet permissions.

Loren --

Lines 4 and 5 of the configuration file are </startup> and </configuration>, no?

The <supportedRuntime> element is just a fallback, in case the version of the .NET Framework that the application was built against is not present. See http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9w519wzk. Does the application run if you build it against v1.1?

Coincidentally, just posted some links on this right before I read your posting: http://tabletdev.com/Andy/archive/2005/11/09/838.aspx

BTW, any chance the comment editing box could be a little larger? :-)

Loren, another thought: did you update the Microsoft.Ink.dll after installing Visual Studio 2005?

I assume that this problem is occurring with ASP.NET, not WinForms, but maybe worth a shot.

I had misnamed the file.

Now the configuration file is working and I can blog in ink on a system with .NET 2.0 and Visual Studio 2005.

The fix? Place the xml shown in this post in a file called iexplore.exe.config in the same folder as the Internet Explorer exe (iexplore.exe). To find IE's exe, look under Program Files\Internet Explorer.
