    <p>I am trying to get a basic VS 2012 project working with ILMerge, so I can eventually move up to more complicated examples (and eventually be able to use it with my real project).</p> <p>Currently I have a working project, <code>TestMain</code>, and a reference library, <code>TestDLL</code> in the working project.</p> <p>My working directory (..\bin\Release) is as follows:</p> <ul> <li>ILMerge.exe</li> <li>TestDLL.dll</li> <li>TestDLL.pdb</li> <li>TestMain.exe</li> <li>TestMain.exe.config</li> <li>TestMain.pdb</li> <li>TestMain.vshost.exe</li> <li>TestMain.vshost.exe.config</li> <li>TestMain.vshost.exe.manifest</li> </ul> <p>My terminal output is as follows:</p> <blockquote> <p>C:...\bin\Release>ilmerge /target:winexe /out:ContainedProgram.exe "TestMain.exe" "TestDLL.dll"</p> <p>An exception occurred during merging: ILMerge.Merge: Could not load assembly from the location 'C:...\bin\Release\TestMain.exe'. Skipping and processing rest of arguments. at ILMerging.ILMerge.Merge()<br> at ILMerging.ILMerge.Main(String[] args)</p> </blockquote> <p>Pretty simple, right? What am I missing here?</p> <p><strong>Update:</strong> Removing the .exe and running ILMerge with only the library works. Removing the .dll and running it with only the executable doesn't change the error output.</p> <p>I also made a second .dll and was able to use ILMerge to merge the two existing libraries into one with the following:</p> <blockquote> <p>ilmerge /targetplatform:v4,c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319 /out:Test.dll "TestDLL2.dll" "TestDLL.dll"</p> </blockquote> <p><strong>Update 2</strong> So I was able to create a TestRun.exe with the following:</p> <blockquote> <p>ilmerge /targetplatform:v4,c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319 /out:TestRun.exe "TestMain.exe" "Test.dll"</p> </blockquote> <p>This took the two reference library .dll's packaged together and packaged them with my executable. And it worked! I was able to get the expected results.</p> <p>Until I moved my new executable out of its home folder.</p> <p>As soon as I moved it to a new location, execution produced this error:</p> <blockquote> <p>Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'TestDLL, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.</p> <p>at TestMain.Program.Main(String[] args)</p> </blockquote>

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.
