this week I upgraded from visual studio 2008 to 2010. I now cannot drag tables from my data source to my lightspeed model. what do I need to do to make this happen? |

As an attempt at self-diagnosis, I tried downgrading from the latest (6.3.5) mysql connector to the previous one (6.3.2 - which worked on VS2008) with no effect. I'm running VS2010 professional on windows XP x64, and I am using the nightly build of LS 3.11 that I downloaded on 1-11-11. |

You shouldn't need to do anything: it looks like you may have an installation issue. What happens when you drag and drop? Do you get a "no drag" indicator or does it seems to be dragging but nothing happens when you drop? Are you able to add new entries to Server Explorer, or do you get a dictionary error if you try? VS2010 Server Explorer is a bit prone to breakage: if you can't add new items then this may mean it has gone into 'broken mode' which may also affect drag and drop. Try opening the Visual Studio Output window and then re-dragging. This may show an exception message explaining the problem. If that doesn't provide anything, then uninstall LightSpeed using Control Panel (check that you don't have multiple copies of LightSpeed listed there: if you do, uninstall them all). Open and close Visual Studio, then from a Visual Studio command prompt run devenv /setup and devenv /resetskippkgs. Then reinstall LightSpeed. |

when you said "server explorer" it clued me in to the fact that I was trying to drag them from the wrong window. I was dragging them from the "data sources" window, and of course that doesn't work. I got it working now. |
