I downloaded the Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and installed it on a 64 bit Windows 7 PC. I tried to do the first program (see code below) which is straight forward but got this sever error "Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.Runtime, Version 1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=(a hexadecimal number) or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. Can anyone shed some light on whats going on here. I checked to make sure ISS7 was running and it is along with the Web services
Thanks for any help.

Hi Colleen,

Sounds like you installed the Page Inspector along with VWD Express 2010. The Page Inspector is designed for Visual Studio 11 (the next version after VS 2010 and currently only available as a preview) and causes problems like the one you posted. Uninstalling the Page Inspector will resolve the problem:
