Hi,

I've the following error during the build of my project :

Could not load file or assembly 'file:///c:\program files\microsoft
visual studio 8\smartdevices\sdk\sql
server\mobile\v3.0\system.data.sqlserverce.dll' or one of its
dependencies.

But if i go to the directory i could see this file, what is the matter?
i used a Beta version of VS 2005.
The size of the target file is 219ko is it the good size.

Thanks for your answer.

"...or one of its dependencies." Have you checked to see what (if any)
dependencies this DLL has?

One of the tools provided with the development environment is the
dependency walker (depends.exe). You might have to search for it. If you
fire that up and open the DLL, it tells you what other DLLs it depends
on. However, it doesn't help with DLLs that are dynamically loaded.

Another tool that you could use is filemon or procexp from
www.sysinternals.com. They can help you see what a process is loading,
and possibly, attempting to load. I'm not sure about this last bit.

HTH,
Phil.
