Hi,
I am working on a Win Forms App in VS2008 Express and gradually the project started having problems building. It would throw up a message - something like "Build cannot be completed" even though there were no compile errors. If I closed the project and re-opened it the build would work ok. It was a bit annoying but I persevered with it and then all of a sudden one of my main forms just went blank. I checked the designer.vb file and all the objects are there, but they just won't display on the form (either when designing or during run-time). I googled it and some people have had similar issues but usually with all forms not just one. I rebooted, tried to create new vb files for the affected form (copying the code into the new form) but nothing seemed to sort it.
I will get our network Admin to restore the project from a backup and can hopefully copy the old form back into the project but has anyone had this before, or got any suggestions as to how I might fix it?
I would post my designer.vb code but i'm not at the office at the moment.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Tom
