Form becomes a script????? STRANGE !

[dinosaur_uk]

Hi there,

I am absolutely mystified why this is occuring. I have 6 panels which has lots of controls on it. However, when i close and reopen the project, the form becomes a script, i.e when i double click on it, i open up the code and cannot see the form designer. I get round this by fiddling with the Friends Withevents btnBah as System.Textbox etc etc.... I realised if i move them around, it realises it is a form again and the icon changes..?

Anyone ???

arghh1!!!

should i not use panels anymore?

that handiest way to get them all back to normal is just to rebuild the project....

but it is quiet strange

I have a simple way to solve ur problem cause it always happens to me.

1.Go the the script.
2.Click on the empty space right below the "Imports" lines.
3.Type any thing (eg sdagasdgdf) and press enter.
4.At this point in time ,your form would have turned back from a script into the form.
5.Delete away the rubbish u just type.
6.Continue with ur work !

Don't ask me why,it just works.

Yeah ...very strange...i found that out too...

But I only find this happends when i have lots of controls on the form....

I have been getting the same bug since I started developing for PDA's a few months ago. Annoying but at least it doesn't really affect your project

[dinosaur_uk]

Strange though,.....

wicked ways of the pda
