I'm running VS2010, and I'm trying to open (or show) a form from a different project.My solution contains 3 projects: #1-The main program, #2-a custom control DLL, #3-a report generator project.I want to use a menu item click in project #1, to open (Load & show) a form in project #3. I can't figure out how to programmatically get access to the a form in a project #3.
View 3 RepliesI have made the bad mistake of renaming FORM1 directly on the Solution explorer with the result of me unable to open the form in both designer and code.
The error is:
The Form1.vb does not exist. It may have been renamed, moved or deleted
Public Class ExtendedDateTimePicker Inherits DateTimePicker
View 5 RepliesFor reasons that are beyond my control, I have three Projects. Projects A and B reference project C. Project A references project B so that it can open a large form in project B. I now need to open that large form from project C, but VB won't allow me to add a reference from C to B because that would create a circular dependency. I found a way around it, though. I created a Timer in A, and when I opened C from A, I passed in that timer. When the user performs a certain action, I enable the Timer from A, and this causes C to open B for me.
View 2 RepliesI have read a lot of the prior questions/answers on this topic but it only took me so far. I have a solution to which I added 2 additional programs. These 2 added programs in essence create a PDF2TIFF converter using GS. I wish to call that form and use it as a utility from my main program. After reading other answers in the forum, I added these two programs as references in the main program and imported everything available, into the main program. I have what seems to be a correct build order set up. I want to open the form in the utility project(s) from a link on my main form. I tried a few things but the only way I could write the code without errors was to instantiate the second program then call that with a button click.

I just started using visual basics 2010 and spent a few hours making a project. I saved my project and was given three files. X.vb,
X.Designer.vb and X (a .net managed resource file) (X is the name of the project) How do I open up the project again so I can continue editing it.
I've spent weeks working on a project. I develop on both of my computers (Desktop and Laptop) which are both equipped with VS Express 2010. The programs debug, and compile with no issues on both of my machines, even when the .exe is removed from the debug folder and placed elsewhere. However, when I try and run the program on my brother's computer, the initial form jumps up on the screen as desired. Then the program is designed to open the next form upon the click of a button. When that button is pushed, we get the following:
See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Having just downloaded the Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate Beta, I decided to code from scratch a little project I coded under 2008 VB.Net and see how it goes. However, when I click on "New Project", select new Windows Form Application project and try to open it, I get the following error dialog box & msg:
"Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type
'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Editor.Implementation.IVsGlobalUndoCapableUndoManager'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID'{305E8709-55B7-4732-B872-1C073AB58047}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE))."
Anybody have any ideas what's up here, or should I post this in a different area? I tried posting this in the Microsoft MSDN Visual Basic IDE Forum but so far I have not received a reply.
I am using VS 2008 and I have a solution with multiple projects. I would like to know how to open a form in project B from a Form in project A. The solution starts with the form in project A.I have tried the following and it does not produce the expected behaviour:In Form A I have added a reference to the Project B. The following code is in a form in project A. appraisal is a form in project B.
Dim appraisalForm As New appraisalApp.appraisal
appraisalForm.Show()
The above solution works to a degree. As the form is instantiated in Project A, I cannot reference any of the items in the form in Project B as I could if the Form in project B was instatiated through startup.
When creating a new project I get an messages stating "Access to the path 'C:userscontrollerAppDatalocal emporaryProjectsMazeMy ProjectAssemblyInfo.vb' is denied.
