I can't run SQL Compare 6.2 or SQL Data Compare 6.0 - brand new install. Attempting to start either program crashes it with a "TypeInitializationException". Please help!

    Do you have any other tools that use DevExpress? They provide a library we use in our UI, and there is a problem with their library that is detailed with a possible solution on http://www.red-gate.com/support/kb/KB200708000126.htm

    Thanks; for me the problem wasn't DevExpress. I just got around the problem with the help of Red Gate support, and the problem was that My Documents was set to P: (no backslash). When I right click My Documents and change the path to P:\ then I am able to get into SQL Compare and SQL Data Compare.
