I'm very tired:
I have 2 forms, in the first i have a tab control with 10 pages.
Inside every page I insert a panel and inside panel I put come
controls...

I copy the panel and paste it in the other form....when I go back to
old form often all controls or some controls are disappeared....
So I have to set Panel dock property to none and resizing it some
controls become visible again....if some control miss I have to select
it in the property window and moving it or resizing or bringing it to
front it'llbe visible again......

Please some solutions for this wasting of time and free stress....
Thanks

Now I'm working on vb2005 express but the problem is present also in
vb2005 professional

Can't repro the problem in VB 2008 Express, neither in SDI nor in MDI mode.
Do you have the latest graphics driver installed?

Alcibiade,

To report bugs is
http://connect.microsoft.com

Here it has no sense to tell it,

But as you do it, then tell better what is "often", and with how many
different projects, the version you use etc.

However, this never happened to me (I did not try this with the Beta 2010),
and I really don't see how the dock property can influence this, as the dock
property is just a property in the designer.vb code.

Be aware that in the IDE there is a difference between Copy and Cut.
With Copy are not all things pasted which has results there would be
duplicated wrong code into the pasted place, but I cannot see based on your
message how that can be related to that here.

Hello, Alcibiade,

Is it possible that the controls are actually on the form and not on the
panel? You can test this by selecting the panel and using the menu commands:

Format ==> Order ==> Bring To Front and
Format ==> Order ==> Send To Back

If the controls appear when you send the panel to the back of the z-order
and disappear when you change the panel to the front of the z-order, this
indicates that the controls are not actually on the panel, but are on the
form instead.

Cheers,
Randy

Or, you can open the document outline window.
