FIX for MSB3247 warning message

you can get the level of verbosity you need to diagnose the issue by looking at the output window. To do this, follow these steps:

[1] Bring up the Tools/Options dialog (Tools->Options...). 
[2] In the left-hand tree, select the Projects/Solutiosn node, and then select Build and Run. Note: if this node doesn't show up, make sure that the checkbox at the bottom of the dialog ("Show all settings") is checked.
[3] In the tools/options page that appears, select the MSBuild project build output verbosity level to "Diagnostic." 
[4] Build the project and look in the output window. 

MSBuild will have spewed out a lot of diagnostic messages. The ResolveAssemblyReferences task, which is the task from which MSB3247 originates, is probably our best task for logging diagnostic information -- those logging messages should help you debug this particular issue. Please reactivate the bug and let us know if they do not help. 

Sincerely,
-- Izzy
