I am also getting the Error: "There was an error rendering the control. Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation."

 

I downloaded the trial version yesterday. All worked fine then even after rebooting my box a fews times.  Today error appeared in three different pages, of which only one had been edited since yesterday.  My problem is in the initial display. I am using the control in the Edit Template section of a FormView. Once I switch to 'Edit Templates' mode in VWD and select the Edit Template, the form and CE control appears as normal.  The error appears to show up only when the FormView is in a non-edit template mode, i.e. the default mode when a page is loaded. 

 

 FYI, I installed IE7 and other windows updates in the last 24 hours.  Could that be the problem?

 

VWD Express 8.0.50727.42  NET 2.0.50727

 

Love the product and hope to purchase it if this can be resolved.

 

Thanks,
