I have several Windows Mobile 5 and 6 Device applications in VS2008 and I've been using your Dotfuscator Community Edition and everything was fine in my old machine that broke down.
I was able to copy all my projects to a new machine and VS2008 projects build fine.
When I try the Dotfuscator project I had, there is a build error described below. I created a new project and the error persists.
I tried to find 'System.Windows.Forms.Control,System.Windows.Forms, Version=1.0.5000.0' with no success and I hope you can give me an idea how to solve this.
Regards
Pedro

Hi Pedro,

What you're trying to do is not supported by the CE version.
If you need information to upgrade to the Pro version, you can contact eurosolutions@preemptive.com (for European users) or solutions@preemptive.com (for non European users).
You can also register for an evaluation on the web site.

David.

Hello, David
thanks for your answer.
As I said in my first post, I was using CE with Windows Mobile 5 and 6 and all went fine and well.
Anyway, I'll look into the other versions.
Regards
Pedro

Pedro,
With the Pro edition, you will be able to set a load path to access to the requested version of the missing DLL.
David.
