Build error, nothing in task list

Hi,

I have a VB.Net solution with 5 projects, 4 of the projects are control
libraries and the 5th is a forms application that displays the controls.

If I open the form into the designer, the solution will fail to run (it pops
up the build error warning box), but if I remove the form from the design
window then close & restart Visual Studio, the solution builds and runs fine
once again.

This is very frustrating as it's giving me no indication of what is causing
the error... Please help!
 
It's probably a bad idea to structure your solution this way. Having the
executable and the controls in the same solution can cause problems with DLL
versions etc.

See the article in Windows Forms Tips and Tricks for how to build and debug
control projects.
