Vs.net: "designer Generated Code" Editing Problem - Any workarounds ???

miCRoSCoPiC^eaRthLinG
HI,
This is a very old & well-known bug in Visual Studio 2003 and I hear it's been recitifed in the 2005 version. But till I get my hands on it (which isn't hapenning soon enough) I still got to use the old VS2003. The problem is: if you mess around with the code that lies in the region "Windows Forms Designer Generated Code" - the form controls just VANISH when you load it up in designer mode. They just won't come back however hard you try - and all you're left with is a BLANK form. Not that it hampers with your code from running in any way - but you can't see the layout of your controls anymore and kind of grope around in the dark... Does anybody know any solutions to this ??? Urgently needed if there is one...
Thanks a lot smile.gif

P.S. A little bit of details as to where it's going wrong

    Friend Shared WithEvents panelMainScreen As System.Windows.Forms.Panel
    ......
    ........


Do you see the last line - that's where I've introduced the keyword "Shared" after the "Friend" keywork - and that's what makes all the controls VANISH COMPLETELY from the designer. If I remove the shared keyword and try - all controls are BACK !!! But I NEED to use the shared keyword there for other modules/classes to be able to access and manipulate that panel. This is very funny and extremely inconvenient at the same time.. So, can anyone suggest a workaround ??

I have experienced the same problem in my VB.Net Application, and my simplest workaround was to pass the control as a reference to the other modules/classes that needed access to the container.
In my given situation it was possible, and achieved the desired effect, but maybe that is not an option in your situation? I know it seems cumbersome, but it works!

I hope that helps!

Thanks for your reply - infact that's what I exactly did, after being told to get rid of the Shared keyword on vbCity forums... it works all fine now. I simply pass this Panel as a parameter named "Owner" of the type Control to the created class and that created class (which is subclasses from Panel again) attaches itself inside this main panel.. that did the trick smile.gif

    of the problem. What I have noticed firstly is that the link that is generated in the top right
    corner of a post within a thread, the link to that particular post (I'll call that the linkback

    for that post, right? So, what happens if I later revisit the post and edit it? For argument's
    sake, if I get am a bit sloppy in my speeling and don't rite proper Inglish, then your algorithm
    will give me less Credits than if I had been more accurate with my spelling and grammar. However, if
