Package Wizard wants to include a file "2"

When I'm packaging my program, the package wizard keeps coming up with a 2 as an include file that is not found. Is this a file I know nothing about, or some strange anomaly?
 
I've never seen a '2' file before - it may have been a typo the first time you set up the package. Unfortunately, the packaging wizard will not delete files once they are put into the dependencies. You will need to delete the package (not your source - just the package) and repackage it.
 
i use regular expressions in some of my programs.
when i create a setup package, the PD wizard wants to include a file called "3".

opening my .VBP file in notepad, i find this line:
Reference=*\G{3F4DACA7-160D-11D2-A8E9-00104B365C9F}#5.5#0#C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\VBSCRIPT.DLL\3#Microsoft VBScript Regular Expressions 5.5

i ignore the missing "3" file error and add the VBSCRIPT.DLL file manually to the setup package.
i haven't had any problems doing this.
 
Thanks for the reply. I am using regular expressions, so that might be the problem. I've used 2 different machines to package the program and both came up with the 2. I'll try adding the VBSCRIPT.DLL
