SYMPTOMS

When you try to create a new project in Visual InterDev using the New Project Wizard, one of the following errors may occur:

Invalid Class String.
Looking for object with ProgID:VIWizard.CBlankSiteWizard

MS Dev Environment
class not registered
looking for object with class ID :[96045f70-8ED5-11D1-AC54-00A0C94A8147]

"Object variable or with block variable not set"

CAUSE

Viwz1.dll and Viwzrt.dll are not registered.

RESOLUTION

Follow these steps to resolve this problem:

1. If you have not applied Visual Studio Service Pack 3 since you installed any Visual Studio program, apply this service pack.
   
   You can download Visual Studio Service Pack 3 from:

   http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/Aa718364.aspx

2. Find the following .dll files on your system: Viwz1.dll and Viwzrt.dll, and then register them using Regsvr32. To do so: on the Start menu, click Run, and then type:

   regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\Wizards98\viwz1.dll"

3. Register VIWzrt.dll as well; In the Run box, type:

   regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Wizards98\VIWzrt.dll"

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

When you install any part of Visual Studio, you must reapply Visual Studio Service Pack 3.
