No, they didn't say bye bye.

They are all still there. I reinstalled everything. Like I said I can find and use them if I browse for them, but they just won't stay in the list.

The one thing that is really bugging me though is that I can't get to the designers or the insertable objects. I know everything is there but VB just won't let me at it.

It keeps saying file not found, but which file does it mean.

I even reinstalled windows again to make sure it didn't miss a file first time around, but still no joy.
