SYMPTOMS
When you compile a project, Visual Basic raises a warning dialog box about Binary Compatibility being broken if there has been a change in an interface. The dialog box gives the choice to accept the changes (and break compatibility with older versions) or to cancel the compile (and ensure that compatibility is kept).

When canceling the compile to keep Binary Compatibility, the following error message may appear:

Object library invalid or contains references to object definitions that could not be found.



RESOLUTION
This is an erroneous message and can be ignored.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this bug and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
