How do I re-enable available guidance in a Guidance Automation solution?

Somehow, I've lost the "Set Content Files Build Properties" recipe in my solution. The other recipes, such "Register Guidance Package" still seem to be available. How do I get this back?

Thanks!

Hi Michael,

Unfortunately that recipe is tied by using a bound recipe reference (instead of an unbound one) which basically means that it's not possible to bring it back once it's gone (which may have happened because you re-enabled the package, or deleted the .gpState file, etc).

I'm thinking of a few things -requiring a bit of work- that may get that recipe back. I'll try them out and keep you posted.

thanks,
-Victor.

Thanks Victor. I thought that might be the case. It seems I lost it when I refreshed my solution from source control (VSS) by doing a "Get Latest Version."

I tried a few things on my own today, but to no avail I eventually created a whole new GAT solution and ported my code/objects over.

I definitely would be interested, though, if you come up to a solution to this problem.

Regards,

Michael

hi,

Create a new Guidance Package Project. The menu should be there. Compare the files gpState of the twice project and supplement your project's gpState file. The menu should be reappear.

I hope this post will help somebody
