Visual Studio Testing: Code Coverage Property Window Crashes

Problem: If you are using Visual Studio testing tools and you open your testrunconfig file to update or turn on code coverage it closes/crashes immediately. Workaround: If your solution contains a Silverlight project (not Silverlight Class Library, these are ok for some reason) or a WSSF project (Web Services Software Factory) you can unload the project (right-click project in Solution Explorer, select “Unload Project”). Once you have done this your code coverage will work and you can open the property window for Code Coverage in your testrunconfig file. Tags: Unit Testing, Visual Studio 2008 SP 1, Silverlight

SQL 2008 Installation Fails: "Previous Release of Microsoft Visual Studio 2008"

I have been trying since yesterday to install the RTM of SQL 2008. But once I have selected the components to install I get a failure during the check of installation rules.

In fact I've run the install several times.Then I found this post describing why this error is happening. It turns out I had installed and uninstalled an RC version of 2008 several months ago. But I still had Visual Studio 2008 Shell (integrated mode) installed as well....
