  I've got both 1.1.4322 and 2.0.50727 on the servers.
  
  Installation works fine on Windows XP sp2 with both of these.

  Hi,
  Which version of SQL Compare are you running please?
  (If you use copy the following command from Windows Explorer
  %ProgramFiles%\Red Gate\SQL Bundle 5 and then right hand click on the program "RedGate.SQLCompare.UI.exe"
  Select "Properties" and click on the version tab.)
  Please can you send me all four numbers of File Version.
  
  Thank you, regards
  David

  Hi there,
  We have just run SQL Compare on a Windows 2000 Server SP4 system with SQL Server 2000 installed and it all worked fine.
  Have you got any information about the Exception that is being generated please.
  Regards
  David

  Hi there,
  Can you please do the following,

  1) start up a DOS box 2) go to the directory that SQL Compare is installed in 3) type the following command C:Program Files\Red Gate\SQL Bundle 5\>

  RedGate.SQLCompare.UI.exe 2>error.log
  This should then copy the actual exception being generated into the file called error.log.
  4) Please email me the error file. (david.connell@redgate.com)
  Thanks
  David

  Problem solved. Based on the error log, I checked my fonts directory and found that the Times New Roman font needed by the DevExpress component was missing. Installed the font and everything is working now.
