my forms turned into classes.......

Hi all,

I was working fine with a bunch of forms when suddenly ALL my forms turned
into VB classes...any ideas why? Therefore, I cannot display them in design
mode. What can I do to get them back? Both files, the vb and the resx are in
the working directory, and a check on the source code of my vb files, still
displays the region for the Form definition "Windows Form Designer generated
code"
Any ideas why???? and how can I avoid this again?

BTW. I'm working with .NET 2003 and the Framework 1.1
 
Rocio,

I have found 2 methods that work:

1. remove 1 form from your project then re-add it.
2. Switch back to debug mode if you are currently in release mode.

The same thing happens to me all the time, i have to keep
closing and reopening my workspace until they go back to
normal. It is very anoying, must be a VS.net bug, but i
don't see the bug documented anywhere.
 
3. Rebuild the project

Hi,

I have encountered the same problem while in release mode. Switching back to
debug mode solves this problem.
 
This happens to me all the time in debug mode. I have two methods also:
1 - Add a new form. Then delete it.
2 - If you still have the design view available, you can just ctrl-tab to
it.
 
Just wanted to add that this started happening when I switch to .NET 2003,
it never happened to me with the previous version of .NET.

I'll see all your replies.

Thanks!
 
I have tried everything:

1. Adding a new form...it gets addedd as a class.
2. Remove an existing form and then add it again to the project.....gwts
added back as a class.
3. Rebuild the project....nothing happens.
4. Switch back & forth from Debug to Release modes.....still nothing
happens.
e. The only solution is to open a complete new project and add the existing
forms/classes to it.....

This is just getting too painful..

Please, can anyone confirm to me that this only happens with .NET 2003 and
the 1.1 framework?????
 
This bug is tracked in our database and it will be fixed in the coming
release of VS (Whidbey).

Thanks,

David
