I had a goal in mind: install SSMS on Citrix so that if I had to look at one of my SQL servers, I would not need to remote desktop into my desktop or the server itself, in case I needed to look at multiple servers. I wanted just to set up SSMS on the Citrix server as an application so that I could quickly assess problems and avoid redecorating my three monitors when the icons get squished down into one RDP session.
I downloaded the 2008 R2 SSMS installer from Microsoft instead of using my media. After running the installer, I get the following error:

SSMS Install Error
When I run Windows Update, there are no updates available for Visual Studio.
Has anyone seen this before? My Citrix administrator does not know how to proceed. I have never seen this before. Any ideas?
I will blog the solution tomorrow! Enjoy!
