Lost All My Design And Can't See ?

A little but pissed off at the moment as I have just lost a few hours of work. While I was trying to get a form to resize better (so you can make the form bigger and have all the panels and therefore things inside the panels take up the same percentage of the form), I thought about looking in the designer code to see if anything in there would be easy to change to make it work the way I wanted.

Upon finding what I thought was going to be a good bit of code to edit (code that placed the panel in position), I changed it so that panel2 would find where panel1 was (in the y axis), add panel1's height onto panel1's Y location and use that value as panel 2's Y location:

Me.Panel5.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(0, Panel1.location.Y + Panel1.height)

When I switched back to the visual designer view it came up with a warning page (blue bar across the top of the page saying "To prevent possible data loss before loading the designer, the following errors must be resolved:".Therefore I went back into the designer code and deleted what I had previously done and was a little bit annoyed that I couldn't use that code which I hoped I could.Upon going back to the visual design page everything was gone so I went back to the design code but everything was still there.I sighed in relief and ran the program and everything loaded properly so I decided to quit and reload the project to revert to before the incident occurred to be able to see the design in design view.When I reloaded the project everything was still gone and I then found out that the code from the design had gone too meaning I had lost it all. The code that I created would work in the vb coding, I have tried it.
