WER and managed minidumps



Hiya,
I have been trying to get the minidumps from windows error reporting to open
correctly in visual studio 2005.
it's a managed c# application. and the WER site shows the crash a "managed
crash" however when i try and open the mdmp file and load it and point my
pdb at it (as well as the symbol server for everything else)

Problem is it seems to debug the dump as native, so when it loads the
symbols for my app in the pdb it says "no native symbols in symbol file"
(resulting in only a partial stack trace) which i presume means the the
debugger is only looking for native symbols (not managed).

I tried forcing the debugger to mixed mode or managed and it just got an
error saying the file is an unrecognized or unsorrted binary format.

other issues are: "no matching binary found" stuff like:
C:\WINDOWS\assembly\NativeImages_v2.0.50727_32System.Drawing\c152a840d3c3054fbdcbc6a0e8f65bde\System.Drawing.ni.dll
C:\WINDOWS\assembly\NativeImages_v2.0.50727_32System.Windows.Forms\70e41dc5673fcd42be7b347bdcdef6ec\System.Windows.Forms.ni.dll

etc.

how can i resolve this?

Thanks
Tony
