Hi
I just installed VS 2008 an MS 8.5 on one of my PCs.
When I build my VB test app without any MS objects on my form it builds and runs successfully.
When I place a MS object on the form I get a build error and this message:
***************************
Error 1 Task failed because "LC.exe" was not found, or the correct Microsoft Windows SDK is not installed. The task is looking for "LC.exe" in the "bin" subdirectory beneath the location specified in the InstallationFolder value of the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A. You may be able to solve the problem by doing one of the following: 1) Install the Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5. 2) Install Visual Studio 2008. 3) Manually set the above registry key to the correct location. 4) Pass the correct location into the "ToolPath" parameter of the task.

What the hell is that?

I fixed this myself by copying the required files from another workstation.
It was looking for files under "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin" and
an entry in the registry pointing to that location.
