Extender Provider failed to return an Extender

Question

We upgraded from .NET 2.0 to .NET 3.5. A co-worker of mine is getting the following dialog when attempting to run the ASP .NET web project under the debugger in Visual Stud

Answer 1

In VSTO, you can't use the designer while debugging another VSTO app.

For example, if another VSTO debugging session is running and you try to invoke the Excel Designer on a different project, you'll get "The Extender Provider failed to return an Extender for this object". Stop debugging to free up the Designer.
