Copy Local Build Error

[Guest]

I'm using VS 2003 to build a C# program for PocketPC.
I'm using the OpenNetCF framework.
My solution has a reference to the assemblies OpenNETCF and
OpenNETCF.Windows.Forms.
If I set the property Copy Local to true for those two references it will
build without errors and those DLL files will be copied into the output
directory.
But if I close the project and then reopen it and buid (without making any
changes) it now gives a build error :-
"The type or namespace name 'OpenNETCF' could not be found (are you missing
a using directive or an assembly reference?)"
I get this error on the line :-
using OpenNETCF;
in every file.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

This problem can be caused because you have no OpenNETCF.dll in the
directory:
....Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
2003\CompactFrameworkSDK\v1.0.5000\Windows CE

The VS.NET2003 looks for this library in this directory thus make sure
that you have it there.

The OpenNetCF.dll is in that directory. And the reference is pointing to that
directory.
As I said, when I first set the Copy Local to true for the reference it will
build without any errors. It is only after I close and reopen Visual Studio
that I get the error. Nothing has changed in the project between closing
visual studio and starting it again yet the project will not build. Why?
