First Chance Exception - InitializeComponent()

Question

In a function InitializePage (Controls.Page) I call InitializeComponent(). When executing that function I get 4x the following exception:

A first chance exception of type 'System.FormatException' occurred in mscorlib.dll

I cannot step into the xaml because "Source file ... does not belong to the project being debugged". I did recompile everything but there is not change. I tried to remove tags on some buttons and labels to see if the error disapears but had no success. Any ideas how I can step into the code or what the cause of this might be?

I saw this thread before posting. However, as mentioned I can't step into the xaml file and I eliminated many parts where I thougt there could be a wrong conversion. No success. Any input is appreciated.

Hi hfaun,

Welcome to our forum.

I think you could try to TroulbeShooting Exceptions as follow:

And if your issue persists, could you kindly share a simple sample with me to reproduce your issue, I think it is hard to find the root cause of your issue without any code.
