Hello, I recently compiled (or I think I compiled it anyway) and tried to implement it on a test website.  Anyway I did implement some changes, but interestingly enough I don't think the changes took effect.  Maybe I didn't compile correctly, or maybe I didn't install correctly.  I wanted to check my method with folks and make sure I really did compile correctly, and really did install correctly, at least as far as the process goes.  If I did any of this wrong, please let me know.

1. I downloaded SolpartMenuModuleSDK-1720.zip and loaded up the project called DotNetNuke.Menu.vproj and compiled that code.  I saw that the references called a dotnetnuke.dll that was contained in the project directory, so I allowed it to continue to use that instead of the one that with my current DNN 4.5.5 (Maybe that's a mistake.)

I compiled and got a few new files generated (Current date code) DotNetNuke.Menu.dll and DotNetNuke.Menu.xml

2. I opened project called SolPartMenuModule.vproj and got that to compile.  I made sure that the references to the DotNetNuke.dll, DotNetNuke.Menu.dll and etc pointed at the recently compiled DLL and the DotNetNuke.dll I used the first time.  From this I got a SolPartMenuModule.dll

3.  I opened up the SolpartWebControlls.vproj project and saw that it didn't reference any of the newly compiled dll's in it's references. So I made the assumption that I didn't need to recompile that, but I did anyway.

4. I grabbed the zip file in the private assembly directory marked 1720 and replaced the DLL's with my newly compiled DLL's (SolpartWebcontrols.dll, SolPartMenuModule.dll and DotNetNuke.Menu.dll) and then loaded that using the DNN install new module feature.

I came back using my ftp client and loaded spmenu.js,SPMenuCaps.config (./controls/solpartmenu) and SolpartWebControls.dll (./bin)

Did I miss a step?

Thanks in advance.

Last time I checked it was not actually possible to make a compiled web appliction DLL in the EXPRESS versions of Visual Studio.

Im pretty sure you need a full version of VisualStudio2005 to do that sort of thing
 - although its been a while since I played around with any of the express free tools.

oooh. That's interesting.  When I did compile, I did see that the dll's were freshly updated after the compile....At least freshly update by date code.  It's possible that the dll's may not be made correctly.  I'll see what I can figure out.  Thanks for the response.  I appriciate it.
