Unable to find source file

Hi,

I am having a bit of nightmare with a distrubution project in 2005.  I
create a distribution package and it adds fine, there are about 5
dependencies that automatically add and everything works perfectly, I can
build to project and distribute, all dependencies are packaged and register
for COM where required.  Everything is fab...  Except....  when I close the
project and re-open I get several errors telling me that it is unable to
find source file "C:\Root of Setup Project" for assembly "correct
dependency" in '[TARGETDIR]'.

The puzzling bit is that it is telling me that it cannot find file in the
root of my setup project folder and I cannot see why it is looking there.
Surely it is supposed to be looking in the SourcePath for the references.

If I look at the dependencies of my primary output files they are listed
correctly.  I've been through all dependencies and confguration manager and
everything looks ok.

Can anyone point me in any rough direction, I have been working on this for
a week now and am about to roll back to VS 2003...  The big problem is that
this "feature" only started after 4 weeks work upgrading to VS 2005 and SQL
2005.  So all in all the upgrade to 2005 has cost me 5 weeks work, plus the
cost of VS 2005 Pro...  thanks MS...

Any help.... please!!

I've been doing some more digging on this and tun File Monitor druing the
build process, which is showlong nothing unusual, only file not found is a
build.force, I haven't got clue what that is.

I looked at dependency walker too but dont really know what to bind it to.
