IDE :: Cannot Open Existing Form In Designer
Sep 30, 2005
Using the new Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition Beta.Created a project, form, controls, etc. Worked great. Love it, compiled perfectly.Saved everything, closed the program, went to bed. Woke up, opened the project, but now CAN NOT open the form (form1.vb) in Designer mode!! I can open the code, it's all there, exactly as I left it, but cannot get back to the designer mode to (easily) add more controls to it!F7 just opens the code, right-click just gives me code option, not designer option.This is amazingly frustrating..

When I open VB projects in Visual Studio 2005 and attempt to view a form view designer I have started getting "File Download - Security Warning" Message prompting a .tmp file in the location of my project. If I close all open designers and rebuild the project I am then able to open the designers OK.I saw a suggestion to 'restore file associations' in Visual Studio and tried this but with no success.

I am attempting to update an existing winforms application, that was created with a dataset control on all the winforms pages. I have ported it from VS 2008 to VS 2010 and I need to update the database section and connect it to the SQL backend using traditional code method.In the Solution explorer, when I click on the Dataset files, and click "Exclude From project" I am unable to build the project.Is it advisable to comment out the code lines that refer to the dataset in the .designer.vb files?

I am working in Visual Studio with a solution containing multiple projects. The solution is based on a co-worker's computer. I am trying to build the project, I get the following error:
Error 17 Unable to open module file 'C:DocumentsVisual Studio 2010Projects ReportCreatorMy ProjectApplication.Designer.vb': The system cannot find the file specified.

It is on my co-worker's computer, but I don't see it in source control. He has ReportCreator checked out. How do I create Application.Designer.vb?

I will do a program then save it and close it out but when I go back to open it it won't open. It just sits there. I'll click on Recent Projects and they won't open. I'll click on Open Project and select a existing file and it will just put it in Recent Projects but won't open it up.

I want to open an existing VB class file, add a few properties and close it again.
Simple enough, I thought: Take the CodeDom, a VBCodeProvider, parse the code (using the Parse-method), then identify the location where I want my stuff added (doubtless using some nifty LINQ expressions), add a bit of code and then have it generated and here we go.
Now I see that Microsoft apparently added the Parse method only for the fun of it but never implemented it.
What's the story here? Can I only generate code from scratch? Is it not possible to load existing code?

I want to use my word add in to open an existing file, the code is:
currentDoc = app.Documents.Open(currentFile)
where currentFile is a string containing the path to the file I want to open, when ever this code runs, there are no errors, but I also cannot see the document
edit: the program first closes the 'currentFile', adds something to the package, then tries to open it again with the line above, when it closes the document the word application stays open with no document in it, but when it opens it again it is not seen in the application, but the document is open

I have a program that runs some data manipulation on a file when it is double-clicked and then displays this to the user.However, when I double click on the same file type of a different file it opens in a separate instance of my program instead of the same instance already running, i.e. some message that says would you like to reload file, YesNo, and then given the answer perform the action required.I have found some code to stop a second instance from opening, but this is inconvienient for the user to close out of the program everytime they want to view a new file.[code]

In my scheduling app I am exporting information to an excel file. When the first export runs it opens a new instance of an excel workbook. I have decided to save each schedule (AMRN, PMRN, AMTech, PMTech etc) to separate works sheets instead of appending the first worksheet. This way when the shedules need to be printed the whole workbook can be selected to print. When I try to open the existing workbook if it exist I get an error. Here is what I am trying to do.
vb.net
Dim xlApp As excel.Application
Dim xlWorkBook As excel.Workbook
Dim xlWorkSheet As excel.Worksheet

I am currently writing a program in VB 2008. Here is what the program is intended to do: I need it to have two forms of input, so I want it to open existing text files and create new ones. Once the user has selected what input to be taken (either a file is opened or a new one is made, guessing multiple forms need to be used here) the user will then take the text file either created or opened and then be able to click a button which will sort all the text in the text file into alphabetical order and then display the results to the screen. While this happens, I need the words in the file to be counted by a counter (so a loop i guess) that then displays on which line each word appears on. I then need this information to be displayed in a text box on screen.

I use MS visual studio 2010. I did open designer and view the form for the same file A before. But after some small changes, I can no longer view the form designer.vb, but can only view code in designer.vb. Even if I go back to the original source, I still can not open designer!!
The error is: The designer could not be shown for this file because none of the classes within it can be designed. The designer inspected the following clsses in the file A-The base class BaseClass could not be loaded. Ensure the assembly has been referenced and all that projects have been built.

Yesterday I installed vs2008, installed SP1 all seems well.I have converted a project (from VS2005), it works fine but....When I try and modify any of the forms none of the controls aer displayed on the form.Additionally I have noticed that each form has a formname.designer.vb file, the top few lines of the code in the designer.vb files are;
<Global.Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.DesignerGenerated()> _
Partial Class frmFullMarketView
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
[Code]....
Then my controls are listed. Do I have to copy the code held in the seperate designer.vb file back to the 'formname.vb' file for all my forms?If so, why does VS2008 create all this extra work when converting forms from vs2005?

I am working in VB.Net 2010 framework 2.0. Suppose i declares a property
[Code]....
In the form designer, the property "MyColor" will be seen the value as 150, 145, 145. I want to see this value as "NewColor" in form designer. This is the same like ControlDark, ActiveBorder etc. system colors. I want that instead of the color value, designer should show the variable name. The .Net framework also use the above implementation for System Colors and same i want to do.
