However, if I have the DEBUG version build, everything works fine and my page displays correctly !!!!!!


I did a google sreach for this error and someone suggested to use "FUSLOGVW.exe " to see what is missing. When I run my FUSLOGVW.exe, there is no file or application name under the main screen !!! I have attached the snap shot of that to this page to this thread.


I really appritiate your help with this problem.
