failed to open VSTS 2008 project file

I have an ASP.Net VSTS 2008 project and the project depends on database (SQL Server 2005), it could be opened by VSTS 2008 fine when the machine installed with SQL Server 2005. But when I copy the project to another computer without SQL Server 2005 installed, there is error message like this, any ideas what is wrong?

Failed to create Microsoft Visual C# 2008 editor, because of failed to open project "FOO", QueryService for {} failed

i had the same problem, found the solution in a belgian forum post

http://www.computerfaq.be/visual-studio/visual-studio-error-compiler-could-not-be-created/

open a visual studio command promt, and run the following

devenv.exe /ResetSkipPkgs

Solved the problem for me, next time i opened visual studio the regular way and it was still solved

My guess is it's not lack of sql server that's causing this, it's some other visual studio plugin or package. In QueryService for {}, is there a guid in between those brackets?
