Yes I noticed this when after un-installing that particular module I
realised that the command had been adding members all the time and so
the command did not exit with and error. I agree it is a somewhat
misleading error message, but I am not sure how else you could handle
it. Better than the application exiting with an error because it can't
run a broken plug-in, no?

Cheers for your help :) The irony is I don't even have a WinCE device,
but that I loaded all modules by default. So for me running without it
is no biggie. But thought I'd mention it for others just in case.

It's a tough job, but some mug has to do it...
