I tried to install this program without success - on install it throws up a html page saying install ok, but the install progress box sticks. The program is listed from the start menu and show up in VS - Object Mapper in Tools. Trying to run Object Mapper in VS opens a connection dialog but clicking on this causes VS to hang.

There is no uninstall option showing in Windows Remove Programs which indicates it hasn't installed properly. So how do I uninstall it? I have downloaded and run the cleanup utility from MS, deleted the db from SQL Server and deleted the 4 tools from the VS toolbar. I also deleted the IdeaBlade folder from the Windows Programs folder BUT the Object Mapper still shows up in VS which is causing problems - how do I remove all traces of this program from VS and my PC?

Installation of DevForce Express 3.5.1.1 doesn�t actually complete until you close the html page.  This bug will be fixed in the June 27 release of DevForce.

The Object Mapper is located at C:\Documentings and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\MSEnvshared\AddIns. 

When you reinstall DevForce, be sure and close the html page.
