Problems Compiling NCo3 vanilla Tutorial

[Former Member]

I just downloaded the NCo3, 64 bit for .NET4 and am trying to just compile the Tutorial that came in the ZIP file.

I am running W7 64 bit, .net 4 and VS2010 Express.

In "Programs" under control panel, it says SAP .NET Connector 3.0 for x64

I've added references to SAPNCO.dll and SAPNCO_UTILS.dll (which oddly reside in the Program Files (X86) directory.

When I try to compile the Tutorial project, I get two warning messages:

*Assembly generaton - References assembly 'sapnco_utils.dll' targets a different processor*

*Assembly generaton - References assembly 'sapnco_utils.dll' targets a different processor*

Googling around it seems like this message indicates a 32 bit DLL is being compiled with a 64 bit application however the warning can be ignored.

When I try to run the application, i receive this Exception

System.BadImageFormatException was unhandled

Message=Could not load file or assembly 'sapnco_utils, Version=3.0.0.42, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=50436dca5c7f7d23' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.

I have found that on Windows 7 x64, I still had to run the 32bit version of the connector. However, when I switch over to our Windows Server 2008 R2 box, the 64 bit version of the connector works and the 32 bit version does not.

hope this helps.
