What's the best way of designing forms for use with C# using only the SDK,
not the IDE?
I.e. the layout of the controls.
You have to manuallly type in the file, or is there a 3rd-party editor?

A "3rd-party editor" would most likely be an IDE --
If you're just looking for free (as opposed to paying for VS.NET), you can

If there are free IDEs, why would you pay for Microsoft's?
I can *just* understand why you would pay for it for C++, to get the wizards that create MFC and ATL projects and such like. You might also want the optimizing compiler. But would you really pay over a grand for those things? It's not as if there aren't free optimizing compilers.
What I've found is that, using free stuff only you can:
* debug, with /debug and Windbg and ClrDBG (with .pdb files)
* compile C++ code with optimization (albeit with non-microsoft tools)
* and now apparently it seems, design windows forms for C# (and VB)!
surely people don't spend a grand just to have
* Microsoft's optimizing compiler as opposed to another optimizer
* the convenience of all the wizards MS provides
That's probably what I'm after, thanks
so GNU *do* know the *meaning* of the term 'window' !!! :-)

There does not seem to be any forum for general oo design questions, so I'm
posting it here.
I'm developing a generalized form processing system under .NET and I wonder
if anyone has come up with an OO data model for forms handling, or where one
might go to look for such a thing. I suppose it would be a little like the
Microsoft Access Forms model where you have forms, subforms and controls
within forms.
Basically, this system needs to be...

I personally cannot stand the Allow Design Changes property set to
anything other than design view. Is there a way to loop through all
forms and set this property to design view only? There always seem to
be a few forms that slip past and I figured this would be a good way to
make sure they were all changed.
Thanks

Hi,
I have moved an application from VS2003 to VS2005, and I am now unable
to view most of my forms in the designer.
The majority of the forms in my project are derived from class PACForm,
(which itself derives from System.Windows.Forms.Form)
Whenever I try to open on of these forms in the designer, I get an
error, stating it is unable to load one or more of the requested types.

Hi,
This is driving me absolutley insane! Every time I want to take a very complex from into design view or save it after amending it in design view, it takes ages to save. All I can think of is that I make all my queries in the Form e.g. if I have a list box I will have saved the query in the row source of the list box instead using VBA listbox.rowsource = "query". What would be the best way to make the forms faster (to go into and come out...
