What happened that the form did not change?

I have little knowledge of VB.net but inspite of this I tried to help my son with a program he was doing. He sent me a copy of what he had done which loaded just fine. I mostly just moved the buttons around, placed some into a new group and changed the layout. I also reneamed a few of the text boxes and labels. Since I was trying to redo the code he did I cut just that code out. When I ran the program a very strange, to me anyway, thing happened. It ran but the form that popped up was the original one absent all the changes I did.

I did just about anything I could think of including stopping and startign the program as well as copying the project to another folder but everytime I hit run the original form cam up.

What happened?

If I uderstand the question correctly, I think what happened is that the first time you made the changes, you were making them while the program was in run mode.

You need to stop the program and make the changes on the design form in order for them to save. You also have to save the changes and build them.

Another problem may be that you accidentally changed the name of the form, so the code keeps calling up the old form.

Try that. If that's an oversimplified answer, then I misread the question.
