[WiX-users] MBA Application - No controls showing up on my main view
Hello Everyone,
Trying to create a window for my main view. I get the window showing up but no
controls and no text. Just the standard MSI icon. I know I'm invoking the
right class since the Run method defined below has a MessageBox.Show(...) and
I'm getting that message box.
Anyone have any previous experience with this? Is my XAML really that bad?

Re: [WiX-users] MBA Application - No controls showing up on my main view
And solved my own problem as soon as I had sent the email... I've been
looking at this for two weeks on and off.
My XAML Window/@x:Class 's namespace was different than that of the
code-behind. The constructor I guess was being auto-created and
InitializeComponent was not being called.
One for the ages I guess.
