I built an application that works 100% ok when I run it in debug mode but
with CTRL-F5.
I changed to deploy and get the System.NotSupportedException message.
I ALSO get the error when I run in debug mode with F5 (not CTRL-F5).
Here is a partial piece of code:

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlServerCe;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;

namespace NJ5J_CarLog_PocketPC
{
public class formCarLog : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
        public string wrkMaximumMileageStart = "9999991.0";
        public string wrkMaximumMileageEnd = "9999999.9";
        public decimal maximumMileageStart = 0;
        public decimal maximumMileageEnd = 0;
        public formCarLog()
        {
        InitializeComponent();
        maximumMileageStart =
System.Convert.ToDecimal(wrkMaximumMileageStart.ToString());

The last instruction above is what gives the exception. I found another
solution on this newsgroup and tried Parse() but it also gives the exception.
Is there a namespace I am omitting? The MSDN help shows that this is
supported in the .Net Compact Framework.
Thanks in advance,
Carl Perkins
