This is part of a project.
The project builds without errors !

But when I debug it, it shows an exception :
ReflectionTypeLoadException
Unable to load one or more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information (on the marked line).

What could be the reason ??

What does the LoaderException property say?

I have attached a snap shot of the Exception dialog box !
You may have a look at it !

In that window (the exception window) click on the "View Detail" link and look at the LoaderException property to see what it says.

In that window (the exception window) click on the "View Detail" link and look at the LoaderException property to see what it says.

This is what the LoaderException property was showing!:

[B]{"Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=969db8053d3322ac' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)":"Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=969db8053d3322ac"}
[/B]

Is the problem related to version number of the included assembly ???

System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException was unhandled

If I have understood the error correctly, I guess this is the problem !

My computer has Microsoft.WindowsCE.Forms Version : 1.0.5.0.
I guess I need version: 2.0.0.0 !

Could anyone tell where to get that version !????
I could only find .... 1.0.5.0, 1.0.2.0 yet !
