Hi ting
They are the same. The application was working and I haven't changed anything except as I'm moving everything across to my new laptop, I'm working on both systems (this could take a few days as you know).
Would the fact that they are on different domains be a factor? Hell I'm guessing as I haven't a clue what to look for.
Anyway I deleted the two projects, cleaned up TFS, created two new ones with one model and now it's working on my old laptop. As soon as I update the source on the new laptop, it has the license key exception.
Back to my old laptop, and it's still working. So I added my second model (for a different database) and now that laptop is getting the exception. Delete that model and it works again. I had it working with 4 models yesterday morning before I started with the new laptop.
Anyway it's 4pm, I'm (very?) frustrated and my wife says she has a cold beer with my name on it.
