You can only install Visual Web Developer 2005 SP1 if you have this application installed before.You are trying to install the service pack 1 for Visual Web Developer 2005.Maybe you want to install the complete package, with SP1 included? E 12°55'05.25"N 56°04'39.16" |

| Hi Peso,I tried to find the one as you said "the complete package" and downloaded SQLEXPR.EXE which is Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1. This doesn't solve the problem.Where can i find the complete package?Thank you in advance |
