Hi Jahanzeb,

Could you please try to close the project , delete the obj and bin folder under the project folder?

Does it work now?

If the issue is still not solved, could you please send your project or a demo to me([e-mail])?

Best Regards,

Hi,

I am also getting the same error even after the following the instruction by Bob. What I noticed is at the time of build process, a file CSC933D.TMP created and will be deleted later the build process.

thanks,
