Hello,

After the attempts to fix my computer didn't work
today, I did some research. I found this forum on
the software company's website that might help.
http://www.red-gate.com/messageboard/viewtopic.php?t=8009

I also was able to find the error log. The
following is the error message that is thrown when
launching Red Gate.

System.TypeInitializationException was unhandled
  Message="The type initializer for 'ch' threw an
exception."
  Source="RedGate.SQLCompare.UI"
  TypeName="ch"

I hope this information helps.

Hello,

My computer installed some updates this morning
and now the following programs no longer work.
When I attempt to open the program I get the
following error messages.

1. Red Gate SQL Compare - error msg: SQL Compare
has encountered a problem and needs to close.

2. Solutions Design LLBL Gen Pro - error msg:
Absolute path information is required.

Any idea what is causing this problem? I have been
using these programs daily without any problems.
Should I have the software re-installed?

Thank you!
