debugging a control when it's in the designer

What's the best way to debug an problem that only comes up in the forms
designer? I get a compile error in the task list, but it's a not-so-helpful
'Object reference not set to instance of an object.', and clicking on it brings
up nothing, just sends me to the top of the form code. Usually I can figure out
what's going on, but this time I really need to see what's happening at
design-time to fix it.

TIA,
Bob
 
Hi Bob,

I've had that and it <is> unhelpful. But so far it's always been my
mistake.

You'll have to remember what areas you've been working on and backtrack.
Remove chunks and put it back in piece by piece - all the usual stuff.

Good luck,
Fergus
