Paul,

Your advice made me realize what needed to be done. What I did was look at the help file for creating a MM.NET Windows service. Since this does not have a template or built in default values for a project the help file shows how to add all the necessary code and references to get the framework initialized.

Thanks again for your help.

Bob

>You need to initialize the framework first. I don't have the code handy here at home but take a look at a MM.NET WinForm app, inside of the startup program - there is some code there that starts up the App object. There is also a help topic about using MM.NET with NUnit, which is basically the same idea.
