Toolbox error: Invalid FORMATETC structure
posted

Hey guys,

All of a sudden my NetAdvantage tab on my toolbox in VS2008 stopped working. Whenever I try to drag a control from the toolbox onto my page, I get the following error:

The operation could not be completed. Invalid FORMATETC structure.

I tried removing the tab and readding it and it didn't work. I also tried removing the references to Infragistics in my project and readding them and it also didn't work.

Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Ilija

    I am suddenly getting this error as well using Visual Studio 2008. In Souce View, I get the error details. In design view I don't get an error message, just nothing happens when I drop the control on the page.

     Anybody have any ideas on how to fix this?

     

    Thanks.

    I saw this also using NetAdvantage for ASP.Net 2008.1 with Visual Studio 2005 but only when trying to drag a control while in source mode (ASPX markup). I switched to design mode and it worked fine.
