Help!
All of a sudden my solution won't build!
If I'm in debug mode, it builds fine, but if I switch to release mode, I get the error message:
"Unrecoverable Build Error."
That's it...nothing else...I have no idea where to begin...
I'm using .NET 2005.

VS.net 2005 has a few bugs in the compiler -- there's supposed to be a service pack out early next year. In the meantime, you should report it to Microsoft to ensure they know about it.

To do this, you'll need to have a snippet of code that can replicate the problem for them. And to get that, you'll have to start stripping parts of your code out until it starts working again -- you'll know that the last bit you removed caused the problem.

Once you have a piece of code that replicates the problem, go ahead and call them -- it'll be free of charge if it's a verifiable bug.

Best of luck.
Chip H.

Just a thought, but could you try copying the project to another computer with vb.2005, then trying to see if you get the same results.
