Without any background information about your project no one is going to be able to help you. What is the exact error message? Which files are missing. What are some of the unique things about your project that could possibly be the cause?

it might be because you used pictures that must be in the same folder with the exe file:

you can use this instead:
go to that path & you will find the exe file without use thats whole Publish thing::
my Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\WindowsApplication1\WindowsApplication1\bin\Debug

that underlined text is the name of your project :)
take care

Under the project properties (Alt+F7) you can look under the publish tab on the left. Check the application files to assure all the references you require are on the list. They should be, but not always.

You can also check the prerequisites to make sure that the component you are using are in a place that are accessible. I believe the default is to download them from vendor's website.

You may use Visual Studio 2010's inbuild functionality :)

That will sure help you
