[noam309]

Hi,

I made an hard reset to my pocket pc and uninstalled the net compact framework from my pc , and after I install my pocket pc again and install the net compact framework in my pc again, I'm trying to run my applications made in vb net 2005 , and some app. shows an error message like this:
"An error message cannot be displayed because an optional resource assembly containing it cannot be found"

What does it mean?? please ,I can't run my appilcations,
what resource is missing??

That's not a very helpful message. I don't know about 2005, whether it is different from VS.NET 2003 or not, but I need to install three files plus the program file. Is it the same? Have you installed them all?

Thanks I found my mistake :

I applications that stores data in another directories in pocket pc , and it is obvious that it won't find those resources... thanks a lot!

when this error message is displayed it means the system diagnostics has not been installed on the device.
This cab file is used to give detailed error messages to the user.

In VS2003 its located in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\CompactFrameworkSDK\v1.0.5000\Windows CE\Diagnostics folder

Hi,
take a look at the blog here

Basically, you need to install the correct system_sr_xx.cab file, where xx is your language, system_sr_en.cab is the english one. This file will be in your Visual Studio .Net folder somewhere.
