    Angry Program Crashes But there are no errors

    Hey Forum

    I am using VB.NET Framework 3.5 . I have a very complicated program with over 40 forms and 100s of lines of coding. Earlier today, this program worked perfectly. I decided to change the Assembly Name from APA to Salamander. I do not get any errors and things seem to be going fine. Upon the next debug, the splash screen loads fine. (I am using a timer to proceed to the main form, not the inbuilt splash screen setting as I found it to be more reliable). However, when the main form loads, none of the pictures (resources) load and it exits itself immediately yet no errors appear at all. I think it might be to do with the .resources file but I really don't know. As I only started Visual Basic less than two months ago I'm not sure what all the files other than .vb files actually are.

    I really don't want to have to completely rebuild the program as my release date is in five days and as I am still at school I don't have time to complete it on top of homework. I have tried changing the assembly name back to APA again but it still does not work. I am completely stumped.

    In case it helps, you can download the project file (please do not say it is your own and publish it on the net) here - http://bit.ly/apaerror1 (Filefront) or here - http://bit.ly/apaerror2 (Mediafire)

    Any Help would be greatly appreciated !

    Thread moved from the FAQ forum, which is not the place to post your questions.

    Did you try changing the assembly name back to APA?

    If you look at the resources tab there are about 100 warnings about names, all of which I have fixed yet the program still won't load... This is really annoying as there are no errors to build a fix on...

    Try this, go to the menu in the top of Visual Studio, find the Build Menu drop down, drop down the menu and find the option for rebuild solution. Rebuild your solution and see if the errors go away. It's not a guaranteed fix, but sometimes my projects get a little wonky and that's usually what helps straighten things out again.
