    <p>I'm having a problem with assembly resolution on an end-user machine and I believe it's related to using Portable Class Libraries....</p> <p>I have a .NET 4.0 application that was originally written in Visual Studio 2010. Recently we upgraded to Visual Studio 2012 and we've created a few projects that are Portable Class Libraries. I don't believe we need these features now, but we're also building a Windows 8 Store application that might benefit from these libraries.</p> <p>When I compile my project, what exactly does the portable library feature do? I expect that it allows me to run it on different frameworks without modification or recompiling.</p> <p>When I look at the library in <strike>reflector</strike> dotPeek it shows the Platform attribute as:</p> <blockquote> <p>.NETPortable,Version=v4.0,Profile=Profile5</p> </blockquote> <p>And the references seem 2.0-ish:</p> <blockquote> <p>mscorlib, Version=2.0.5.0</p> <p>System, Version=2.0.5.0</p> <p>System.Runtime.Serialization, Version=2.0.5.0</p> </blockquote> <p>When I run the application on this end-user's machine, I see an error in the log file:</p> <blockquote> <p>Could not load file or assembly, 'System.Core, Version=2.0.5.0...'</p> </blockquote> <p>Googling System.Core 2.0.5.0 seems to refer to SilverLight -- which appears to be one of the targeted frameworks.</p> <p>This machine does not have Visual Studio installed, but has .NET 4.0 (4.0.3 update)</p> <p>Is there something I should be doing differently to compile, something I should investigate in my dependencies or something I should be looking to install on the end-user machine? What does the 2.0.5.0 refer to?</p>

    1. CO2.0.5.0 is the target version for PCL, it gets remapped by the framework. Profile5 = Framework 4.0 and Store. Long shot: Store apps require .NET 4.5. Watch out for the Client profile of 4.0

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
