Resource compiler failed to build the RES file...
Hi
I have an existing project created with IS2008 and enhanced with IS2009. I'm enhancing it again, but when I build the project I get the error: The Resurce compiler failed to build the RES file "C:\...\_ISUser_0x0409.res" required to link the DLL. error code -6118.
Researching this error code I've found a knowledge base doc says this error occurs with text fields that contain two periods. I've checked the project and did find this problem. But even after correcting this I'm still getting this error.
Help!

Found it! It was multiple periods on buttons on various forms. 😞
