Hi Mystique,

My guess is that the ResourceManager is looking for the files on the
drive, and the current directory is different than when you compiled the
messagebox.dll. Try to embed the resource files.

Happy coding!

:-(
Actually they are in the same folder, and they are as "Embedded Resource"!

Can you compile the control successfully?
I had some similar error once when I didn't name the resource correctly.

thanks, but i managed to solve it by changing the default namespace name.
