I have a Windows application running well. Today, after I changed something
on one form, when I start run I recevied an error message "Unable to open
resources files in location". I checked location there were not requested
files there. Where are they gone? It is on my local drive. What could happen
to cause a trouble like this?
Is there a way I can reproduce these files?

Thanks for your help!

Frank,

This is is the resource file for the Windows form you're missing, right? If
so, check this out:

Thanks very much for your feedback! CT,
I don't think I presented my question clearly. Here is the full story:
I have a Windows application which includes 9 forms. The application has
been deployed and running well for about two months. Yesterday, on my
development version, I add some controls (groupbox, label, textbox, three
radio button) on a tabpage in one form and changed code to handle them. After
I finsihed change, I started run to test the change. I received build error
on task list "Unable to open file '... ...\QC Audits
System\WindowsApplication1\obj\Debug\WindowsApplication1.frmAudit.resources':
The system cannot find the file specified. " for all my 9 forms. I tried to
copy those files from backup to designated location but after I press "Run"
those files were deleted and I received same error message. I also missed
generating the "... ...\QC Audits System\WindowsApplication1\obj\Debug\QC
Audit System.exe". I have no idea what caused the problem. I deleted all
changes this morning and still received same error message and couldn't start
test run.
I checked .vproj file. It seem looks fine. All .resx files are there. I
don't where are the .RESOURCES files and how this happen (they are gone!).
Really need more idea on this topic from you guys! I don't even know where
to start investigate and debug it.

I fixed the problem by replacing the .vproj file with the backup copy.
