Having trouble creating first project using Four Simple Steps getting started document.
 
Running Visual Studio Team System 2008 sp1 installed.
Silverlight 3 beta and Silverlight 3 Toolkit installed.
Expression Blend 3 Preview installed.
Then DevForce Silverlight RC1 installed
 
Vista Ultimate 32 bit with sp1.
 
Cannot create a new project based on DevFroce Silverlight template as the following error occurs:
 
 
Have double checked VSsp1 installed prior to DevForce Silverlight installation, but still no luck.
 
Any help greatly appreciated.

A message similar to that is displayed when Silverlight 3 Beta is not installed, but since you do have SL3 Beta I'm not sure what's wrong.  Are you able to create a standard (non-DevForce) Silverlight Application without problems?

Thanks kimj, problem solved.
 
I uninstalled all refereces to Silverlight SDKs and toolkits then reinstalled just Silverlight 3 Tools and toolkit, and now DevForce Silverlight project can be created successfully.
 
There was no option to create a straight Silverlight option in Visual Studio previously, so you were right on the money there.
 
I must have got the original install sequence incorrect.  Perhas VS2008 was not at sp1 prior to Silverlight 3 tools being installed, though I thought it was.
 
Thanks for your help.
