Hi Philip, Thanks for the response.
Unfortunately I'm working for a big company - we're still on XP. I have been pushing them to upgrade certain strategic infrastructure, but it looks like we're stuck for the moment.

Firstly, we have installed VS2010, which installs WCF RIA Services for 2010. This uninstalls WCF RIA Services for 2008. The problem is that we need the 2008 version to continue to operate while we upgrade other applications. That's because it's an LOB application that is quite a substantial piece of work. We have to actually allocate time to go through the upgrade process, with no guarantee that the result will be a working application. So the result is that we have uninstalled WCF RIA 2010 and reinstalled WCF RIA 2008. But of course this means that we need to use the VS 2008 environment. So 2010 is out for us at the moment. Has anyone successfully got both WCF RIA services 2008 and 2010 running side-by-side? I did make a copy of the assemblies and then register them in the GAC after 2010 was installed, and while this made the application compile, it still failed dismally.
