dotnet 2003 problems

[ib]

We're developing a fairly large app with dotnet 2003 (vb). There's a few
strange problems that seem to be bugging us:

1. When running from the IDE sometimes our app will just end with no
warning, as if you had pressed the stop button. We tried putting breakpoints
in unload events but it didn't stop on these

2. One of the projects in the solution frequently fails to build as it
reports the target files (dlls) in use. I've seen many people experiencing
this on a google search but no definative explanations or solutions.

Are there any known solutions or explanations? Are these problems less
likely to happen with dotnet 2005?

Thanks

You run in the debugger or with cntrl-f5? In general, try to run the
app using cntrl-f5, it's faster.

this is a known bug. Please call PSS and ask for the fix known under
KB article 887818

the second option is fixed, the first I have no idea.
