In both VS 2005 SP3 and VS 2008 SP 1 I am getting the same error when trying to add a new data source on a new VB project.
In Server Explorer I can connect to the database that I want and see the tables there. It's a SQL Server 2005 database that is on our SQL Web server.
I can use 'SQL Server Management Studio' to connect to the database and do queries against it.
If I create a new VB project in VS, then click on 'Add New Data Source...' I choose Database, then choose the connection, then when I click on Next, then Next I get the following error:
An error occurred while retrieving the information from the database:
The type initializer for 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.DataDesign.SyncDesigner.SyncFacade.SyncTableConfigManager' threw an exception.
This appears to be a Visual Studio problem, but since it occurs on both 2005 and 2008, it seems to be something in between VS and SQL Server.
Any ideas with this one?
Thanks.
