    Have you looked in the folder to see if it exists? When you renamed it, did you do it from in the IDE, or from windows explorer? I suspect it was the latter and not the former... because you renamed the .vb file, but not it's accompanying .designer.vb file ... or it's possible you didn't even copy the .designer.vb file in the first place... when you copy things like that you need to make sure you get the .vb file AND the accompanying .desinger.vb file AND the names have to match.

    No. The file does not exist there. I did it from IDE. I clicked on the form ( frmDailyIncome.vb) and then another click and it enabled for rename and i renamed it with another name. Thats it.

    What is it's solution now tg?

    I remember, i have another copy of the same project, in another partition of my hard disk. That copy is running absolutely fine and the application.designer.vb file is existing there. If i copy that file and paste it into this updated project, so will it be fine?

    It's worthy to mention that The project copy, in which i am working is updated one, while the other copy in other partition is bit older. Please guide me for this.
