Hi all, new version and same problem as ever: which version of Visual Studio Express 2012 does it work with NAV 2013? Second question: why they do not explain in details in the help section of NAV 2013 which are the components necessary for doing reports in NAV? I installed those versions: Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows 8 and for Web, now I'm downloading the Desktop version... does anyone have the list of all the correct components?

Thanks
Marco

    VS 2012 is not supported for report development in NAV 2013,

    Thanks, Claus, it is clear, but unfortunately I installed Visual Basic Express 2010 and does not work with NAV (not supported version of Visual Studio).... :( really fool.

    Also you can have both VS 2010 and VS 2012 on your machine. NAV 2013 will not detect that VS 2012 is installed when you open the report layout.

    Hi Clauls, no, the installation of Visual Studio 2012 was made on another computer... in any case, thanks to your post in your blog, now it works (with Visual Basic Express, Visual Web it's not necessary and also I tried to install it but it asked me the sa password of SQL 2012 that no one knows on the Express Edition!!).

    I hope that this discussion will be useful to Microsoft, because I don't think it's the correct way of working: all those things should be explained in the installation guide of NAV 2013 (and possibly directly in the setup program) and should not be retrieved in some blogs... what do you think about this?

    Thanks to all
