Nofications assemblies not found with .net 2.0

Hi guys,

I was trying to develop a non hosted event provider and decided to use NS event object api to submit events to NS. My development system has VS 2005 and my plan is to connect to a NS instance running on a machine on the local network.

But it is weird that I could not find "Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices.dll" in my dev system. Does it mean to develop NS applications we need to have VS 2005 and Sql Server 2005 on same box.

Also note that I have sql server express edition on my development machine and I am aware that express editions doesn't support notification services.

Thanks,

Shamir

Hi Ahmed -

You need to install the SQL Server 2005 Notification Services Client

Components on the development machines.
