Hi, I have a project with a DataSet, a number of DataTables and relations between them. I upgraded the project so I could work on it in the RTM release of Visual Studio 2008 but I am unable to edit those relations. Either VS2008 bombs out completely (and Vista restarts it) or I get "Operation Failed", "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" when ever I try to Edit a Relation.
I can delete a relation and successfully create a new one but I still cannot go back and edit it.
Is this a known issue? If not how should I try and resolve it? Since I'm in the designer and not running my application how can I debug this?
Regards

Ihave this same issue. I can delete and recreate the data relation. I cannot edit it. I can right click the relation and select edit relation and get an error box. Operation failed. Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
If I double click the relation, I get a hard crash that closes Visual Studio 2008.

I have the same problem mentioned above. I can create relations, but if I right-click and try to edit, I get the error, "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". Occasionally, VS dies.

Me too. Simple dataset with two datatables. Happens every time. VS2008 RTM, Vista Business x64 SP1, Quad-core, 8GB physical ram. SQL Server 2005 Installed locally. Can post xml if required.

Although my DataSet is in nested namespace.
Can it have something to do with it?

I have the same problem. But it only seems to happen to me when the table adapter query commands are set to use stored procedures.

I am experiencing the same problem as well. Except I can not even add a new project datasource via the wizard.
When i do, i select my database, connectionstring and then a simple select * from a given table.
As soon as i click on FINISH, i receive this error and vs2008 crashes.
I think this may have something to do with connecting or oracle, but then again, why would the wizard allow me to see all of my tabels and stuff?
Any clue would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill
