if you remove a dataset from a form ...

I removed a dataset from a form , I removed the connection strings and all the table adapters etc , on returning to the form I cannot go into design view because in the designer.vb there are still references to the tableadapters , these should surely be removed when you remove the dataset \ table adapters from the form , now I am having to trawl through and debug the designer , what am i doing wrong , how can you remove a dataset 'cleanly' from a project without messing up designer.vb ?
thanks

Use the find function within the designer. Search the current project for any references to the deleted items and remove them. Then Run Debug --> Clean solution, Debug --> Build Solution. Not sure if the last part is necessary, just the way I do it myself when I have this issue.

Good Luck!! :wave:
