I have been working on a project using Visual Studio.Net 2005 and Windows Mobile 6.1

After several builds and installers it has started throwing up an error during the build stage.


Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks


The error contained in the output list:
------ Build started: Project: Stock - RDT, Configuration: Release Any CPU ------
Stock - RDT -> C:\VB Projects\Stock\Stock - RDT\Stock - RDT\bin\Release\Stock - RDT.exe
------ Starting pre-build validation for project 'Marshall RDT' ------

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\smartdevices\sdk\sdktools\cabwiz.exe" "C:\RDT\RDT.inf" /dest "C:\RDT\" /err CabWiz.log

Windows CE CAB Wizard

It was caused by a dll I had written.

The dll was set to Windows Mobile 6 Standard and The Program was set to Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro


I removed the dll added the project found the issue that way then removed the project and readded the dll.


Closing Visual Studio after each add and remove.
