I did quite a lot work with all three major VS 2005 languages very successfully because I don't want to miss all the great new features but this is definitive a issue. My form was quite big and I did not realize early enough to recover it. I hope there is a workaround. Regards, st ...Show All

• John Ericson174499 Disappearing handles clauses

  Has anyone had issues with the handles clauses at the end of eventhandler subroutines just disappearing I have a ton of eventhandlers and when this happens it just wipes all my additions to the code base I've been working on out because I have to undo until I get back my missing handle clauses. I see "Designer Generated Code" in the undo list and I know I didn't enact that. It also puts an extra " ,MyBase .Load" or similar on all the assigned fo ...Show All

• FJ978 Execution Engine Error

  Has anyone else out there had this error I get it when I exit the application that I wrote. An unhandled exception of type 'System.ExecutionEngineException' occurred in mscorlib.dll According the wise ones in Redmond, this error should never happen.

Unfortunately, the line is one that I need ...Show All

• princess01 Why do variables defined from a structure require static key word

  I converted up from Visual Studio 2003 to Visual Studio 2005 and the tool now reports that all variables defined from a structure definition, when the variable is part of a non-shared function/routine of a class requires the "STATIC" key word in place of the "DIM" key word to avoid the warning: Variable X is used before it has been assigned a value. A null reference exception could result at runtime. Make sure the structur ...Show All

• FlatBeach login Form interaction with MDI

  I'm having a hard time understanding what the problem is, but I tried your code, and I'm wondering if this is your problem: 1) you have the login form set as the startup form 2) if you use Me.Close in OK_Click, then the app shuts down rather than showing the MDIForm 3) if you use Me.Visible = False (as in your current code), then it works, but when you later close the MDIForm, the application does not stop running, even though no w ...Show All
