Disable Web Forms Designer

[Chris van den Heuvel]

Does anyone know how we can set which designer (i.e. HTML vs Web Forms) that
an aspx/ascx file is opened in Visual Studio 2003?

I know there's a way to do it (I did it years back) but I can't for the life
of me figure it out. I need to do this becuase the project I am working
inherits from an abstract class and the Web Forms Designer does not like
that. Hence I want to open all pages and controls directly in the HTML view
so I do not keep getting the error.

Thanks.

in solution explorer right click the file and choose "open with...".
The next dialog provides a mechanism to select an editor and set it as
default.
