Hi Experts,

A Visual Basic 2010 solution I am working on has developed the errors below (screen shot also) and will not build. I have copied the solution another computer and it builds OK. What has happened to my development computer to cause these errors?

Warning      1      Cannot get the file path for type library "2df8d04c-5bfa-101b-bde5-00aa0044de52" version 2.8. Library not registered. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8002801D (TYPE_E_LIBNOTREGISTERED))      IncidentManagement

Error      2      Could not resolve COM reference "00020905-0000-0000-c000-000000000046" version 8.6. Object reference not set to an instance of an object.      IncidentManagement

Warning      3      The referenced component 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word' could not be found.

On your computer check out to see if Microsoft Word stopped working or has been uninstalled? If so it is your issue.

The other error messages refer to something called IncidentManagement component. Is that component working correctly?

Fernando Soto,

The project/solution is called IncidentManagement. This is the application I created about a year ago I have been working on it daily and suddenly it stops working a few days ago with the errors shown. If I move the solution to another computer it builds fine.

Well the only thing I can think of doing is to Clean and rebuild the solution. From the main menu click on Build -> Clean Solution. When that is done rebuild the solution.
