Unable to access form in Designer View. Messages   Related Types This message was discovered on microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.windowsforms. Post a new message to this list... Me Hello, I created a VB.Net Smart Device Application solution with only 1 project in it. The project has only on form that I created by selecting Windows Forms from the Windows Forms Toolbox. After writing and running the code, I copied the entire Solutions directory to another folder. When ever I go to the copied folder and open its solution, then look into the Solution Explorer, there "View Designer", only "View Code". Therefore, I am unable to look at my form in the Designer View. I can view the form in the orginal Folder. This has happened to me with several solutions. What I am doing incorrectly? How can I get my form back into Designer View? The only other thing that I can think of that I did was that after I copied the files to the new folder, I went to the properties of the solution, the project and the form and changed the names. I manually assigned the same name to each of the following: the assembly name, root namespace, foldername , solution name, project name and form name. MS Visual Studio 2003 MS Development Environment 2003 Version 7.1.3.088 MS .NET Framework 1.1 Version 1.1.4322 Windows 2000 SP 3 Thanks, Me Reply to this message...        Joey Callisay It happens to me in WinForms, VS cannot detect that the code file is a form file. The workaround I got is to Exclude the code file first and then include it back again...
