help with .exe is missing!

[dave]

i am trying to do an example about debugging from a
book about learning visual basic .net after putting in
the first part of the code it said to run the project, i
clicked start and got the following message, "visual
studio cant start debugging because the debug target"
C:\my document and settings\dave p\my documents\visual
studio projects\My projects\debug example\bin\debug
example .exe is missing. Please build the project and
retry. Can someone tell me what i did wrong and how to
fix it.
thanks.
Dave.

Hi Dave,

Try to rename the project to a one word exe - debug_example and see if you
encounter the same problem. Also, use windows explorer to see what .exe
exists in the \bin sub - it s/b the full exe name.

HTH,

Do there any EXE files exist in the "bin\debug" folder?
