• Visual Basic User Control not updating

  I have a control that I created in VB .net 2003.  It works fine for the most part in 03.  I went to upgrade it today to 2005.  The upgrade seems to have gone fine.  I have attached a test app to the control for testing purposes.  But since moving to VS 2005 when I make a change in the control and build the solution the change is not made in the test app.  I've tried deleting the control and putting it back on, and even shutting down VS and starting back up.  That works 1 out of 10 times.  What could be going wrong Thanks Okay.

• Windows Forms Altering and/or dropping Wizard-Created binding sources

  1 - I used the addNew datasource wizard to add a source. It created a binding navigator, tableadapter, etc. It also created a new connection string (connectionString1) because of my oversight. 2 - Since connectionString1 was identical to connectionString1, I opened the settings and deleted the second one. 3 - I have searched the entire project (including all hidden files) for references to connectionString1 and find NONE - but - when I open the project, the IDE complains that it cannot find connectionString1 and will not allow the wizard to reopen to change the setting on the tableAdapter. Where are these settings stored They are obviously n ...Show All
