Program compiles but does not run on device

[dlfallen]

I am writing a calendar app as I cannot find one that does what I want (displaying a month's worth of bridge dates at a glance - see screenshot).

The program runs fine on the desktop and when I do an optimized compile for the device I get no errors. However, when I try to execute the program on the device I get:

An error occurred on sub _main_fileloadmnu_click.
An error message cannot be displayed because an optional resource assembly containing it cannot be found
Continue?
Yes No

I have attached the relevant files. Can anyone spot the problem?

Yep, I understand why it works on your desktop but not on your device. The error I get on my desktop is shown below - when I run your .exe file.

Its because your config file packaged with your program contains the reference to your desktop folder. If I delete the .cfg file; it runs. You need to think again how and why your config is created.

Is it a :sign0161: type moment?

Use of Control Keyword

If you add the type of control to the lines where you use Control then it appears to solve this issue; ie
Line 143 becomes

Control("Label" & (i+7*(j-1)),Label).text = daytext

Hope this helps

I cross posted your 'Where?' with my edit to my post...

Thanks Zenerdiode, it sure was a :sign0161: moment!

I tend to save support files in the AppPath. I just need to save the file name I need (sans path) in the config file, then look for it thereafter in the AppPath. Then I should be able to create a default file (e.g., bridge.vc) on the desktop and use it on the device, and vice-versa.

Your response was quick - thanks, and thanks to others who also replied!
