Slava,

>I noticed that the original location of MM’s DLLs is c:\windows\assembly\gac\... and the files could not be found there. I checked the actual location and see that it’s c:\windows\assembly. I don’t have GAC folder at all. I read in the MM guide that the installation program puts MM’s DLLs to the Global Assembly Cache (GAC).
>Is it my Windows XP or a new 1.1.3 version of MM Framework? I don’t want to mess with Window’s folders. Any suggestions?

Where are you seeing "c:\windows\assmbly\gac"? The physical directory of the GAC on a Windows XP machine is C:\Windows\Assembly, so the files are where they are supposed to be.

Have you tried removing the MM .NET assemblies from your project and adding the references back in again? If this doesn't work, you can try removing the assemblies from the GAC and putting them back in again. Here's how you do it:

1. Close all instances of VS .NET

2. Open once instance of Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\Windows\Assembly

3. Open a second instance of Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\Program Files\Mere Mortals Framework 2003\Mere Mortals Framework Interfaces

4. Drag Mere Mortals Framework Interfaces.dll and drop it into the right pane of the first instance of Windows Explorer. This re-registers the dll in the GAC.

5. Do the same thing in step 3 for the following directories and dlls:

Mere Mortals Framework\Mere Mortals Framework.dll
Mere Mortals Framework Automation\Mere Mortals Framework Automation.dll
Mere Mortals Framework Web Forms\Mere Mortals Framework Web Forms.dll
Mere Mortals Framework Windows Forms\Mere Mortals Framework Windows Forms.dll
