Okay, I’ve posted this before but I finally got around to trying it  
again and it still won’t work. I’ve installed the  
projectaggregator2.msi  
(more than once, unfortunately) and I’ve uninstalled Steel after  
uninstalling it and it still doesn’t work.  
I’m using VS 2005 and I’ve read the installation instructions and  
they  
claim that it should just work. Should I give up and use something else  
or  
is there something more I can do?  
Thank you…

If you contact us direct we can walk you through your installation to  
check  
if there are any obvious problems. We’ve had a few thousand downloads to  
date and we only know of two problems so far - one is the requirement of  
the  
projectaggregator which many people forget to install (this will be done  
automatically in the next release); the other is related to installation  
into non-English versions of Windows. Can you send us exact details of  
your  
problems - when does the install fail? What are the symptoms? Do you get  
any  
error messages?

Send to support (at) sapphiresteel (dot) com.

Incidentally, there will be a new version of Ruby In Steel (0.75) online  
this week.

best wishes
