Question Failed to create component OvalShape

[groover]

Hi all,

I recently changed from vb 2008 express to vb 2010 express and converted a project I was working on to vb 2010. After conversion I added a lot of code and all worked well.
Now I want to add some shapes from the vb power pack tools and I get the following error:

---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express
---------------------------
Failed to create component 'OvalShape'. The error message follows:

'System.InvalidCastException:

How can I recover from this?

Thanks in advance,

Are you using Power Packs 3.0?
