error retrieving information from user datastore

[Nathan Franklin]

hello list,

i am writing a pocket pc project. just this morning i opened up my project
and I got the following error..

error retrieving information from user datastore.

and then

the project could not be opened because it refers to a device platform that
does not exist in your datastore.

I haver been unsuccessful at fixing this problem.

Could someone shed some light please.

thanks

Nathan
