Unable to add reference to project

I have have my Guidance Package successfully creating a Class Library and a Website.

My issue is that when I try to add a reference to the website after its created, nothing happens. After clicking the Add reference button and choosing the dll, the references for the project show up but nothing has been added.

In my GAT, I have added references by:

Code Block

String assemblyName = "System.Design, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a";

// add the necessary references

aVSWebsite.References.AddFromGAC(assemblyName);

If I try to add System.Data after creating a new project from my Guidance Automation Template, it does not add.

However, I can successfully add new references to my class library. Just not the website project.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Kosmo,

I could not reproduce the issue. However I found someone else who got something like that check this:

try to add the reference using just the assembly name like this: AddFromGAC("System.Data.dll")
