SYMPTOMS
When you use the Visual Basic .NET compiler (VBC.exe) to compile from a command prompt with a response (.rsp) file that references many assemblies, you may not be able to compile, and you may receive the following error message (or a similar one):
For example, this problem may occur if you use the following command at a command prompt:
VBC.EXE /@response_file.rsp
NOTE: The /@ option is not available from the Visual Studio IDE. This option is available only when you compile from the command prompt. This cannot be changed programmatically. This problem is more likely to occur with Microsoft ASP.NET applications because these applications use a command-line compiler.
