.Net calendar control and GAC versus local copy...

[Michael_Wise]

I keep getting warning messages about trying to use the local copy of a calendar control (.net 2.0 with LV 8.5).

The system should automatically use the GAC copy which is what its using, however even after it changing the reference and resaving the files, it continually tries to use the local copy.

I've looking into a project.config file for the .net, however can't find specifically what I need to add to get rid of this problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

I actually figured it out.  Well at least to some extent.  It seems if you use the control (calendarmonth, others as well sucha s the picturebox) from the .net/activex tools pallete, then the warning prompts occour.  Even if you right click and go select activex and choose the one from the .net 2.  These warnings persist if you change to a different activex object selected as well.

If you drop in a blank activex container from the container pallete however, and then select the calendarmonth control, you do not have the issues.  You do however have to remove everything you've done with the original activex control/container you put in and close/restart labview for this to work without issues.
