recently i am starting win phone 7 programing in c#. for first time i take a button and textbox only.In button click function i wrote:

private void ClickMeButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {

            BannerTextBlock.Text = MessageTextBox.Text;
            MessageTextBox.Text = String.Empty;
        }

then i receive an error message **in file:**MainPage.g.i.cs

in line: System.Windows.Application.LoadComponent(this, new System.Uri("/WindowsPhoneApplication2;component/MainPage.xaml", System.UriKind.Relative));

error message: Attribute {StaticResource PhoneAccentBrush} value is out of range. [Line: 39 Position: 138]

I can not find any solution in Microsoft's own site. what can I do?

Looks like you've got an invalid StaticResource in your XAML. Can you post the XAML content of your UI? — Strillo, Nov 18 '11 at 08:43
I think you need to edit your post to add in the xaml. Pasting into a comment won't be so useful — Firedragon, Nov 18 '11 at 08:53
The error there is telling you that the problem is in your xaml code and not within the button code. Try looking in that on the line/position it tells you. Posting that part of the code might help too. Are you trying to set PhoneAccentBrush to a style? It might be similar to this issue: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5006100/xaml-parse-exception-attribute-staticresource-phoneaccentbrush-value-is-out-o The other thing though here is that you are emptying the MessageTextBox before using it. You probably want to switch those statements around — Firedragon, Nov 18 '11 at 08:48

As pointed out by Firedragon, you're setting a Brush as the value for a Style. Which obviously are not the same thing.

The problem is here:

<Button Name="ClickMeButton" Style="{StaticResource PhoneAccentBrush}" ...

This is not valid. What you probably wanted to do, was something like:

<Button Name="ClickMeButton" Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneAccentBrush}" ...
