Hi gerry,

Additionaly, the project's reference file should use the absolute path such
as:
 <References>
                <Reference
                    Name = "System"
                    AssemblyName = "System"
                    HintPath
="C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\System.dll"
                />
..

And the project include files would use the relative path to locate:
<Files>
            <Include>
                <File
                    RelPath = "App.ico"
                    BuildAction = "Content"
                />
..

So do you make sure the referenced DLL file use a relative path in the
.csproj file?

Thanks!
