I copied this strategy from another posting. Everything seemed to work but I still don't see the strategy in the WL6.
I copied both the dll and pdb files to the WL6 directory.

Any help would be appreciated

Here is the source code.

We're trying to escalate the issue of migrating WLP/D 6.4 to .NET 4.0. This is utterly important as .NET 2.0 is more than five years old. Situations like your would be eliminated by changing target framework to NET4.

This post seems ot have gotten me almost all the way there but when I retargeted it to any of the versions earler than NET 4.0 within Visual Studio I get error messages like the one below (this one was trying to target Net 3.5). And although it was warnings not errors it did not output files to the destination This was the cleanest of the set , the other re-targetings resulted in more "not found messages" -

Warning 1 The primary reference "Microsoft.CSharp", which is a framework assembly, could not be resolved in the currently targeted framework. ".NETFramework,Version=v3.5". To resolve this problem, either remove the reference "Microsoft.CSharp" or retarget your application to a framework version which contains "Microsoft.CSharp". TestStrategy

Any help or suggestions of what to try next would be great.
