VS.NET Dialog editor blows up

I've experienced this several times now: VS net spontaneously vaporizes
controls from a dialog or reverts to older code, even if the dialog has
(supposedly) been saved.

Has anyone seen this?

Interesting. Does it blow up later, well after ^Z is pressed?

I have had the same problem happening to me. I have never been able to
figure out what causes it. There is an article in the KB that talks
about a similar issue but it didn't really help me. If you look at the
code in InitializeCompo nent, you can see that the controls are there,
just not displayed.

In the end, it seems that closing the Design View window and recompiling
fixes the problem, at least for me.

I get a Null Reference Exception if I close a modeless form (that is, a form displayed using Show()) when a selection is made from a ComboxBox. If the form is modal (displayed using ShowDialog()) or the selection is made from, say, a ListBox, no exception is thrown. I have included a simple example below. The error message refers to Unsafe Native Methods, but the code is 100% managed. What is going on ? I am using C#.NET 2003, Standard...

I am trying to edit a dialog created with msvc 6.0. If I select a control and look in the properties window, there are no properties shown. The drop-down list has 'Selected Object' multiple times (I guess once per control). Is there any way of changing properties using the dialog editor or should I be using a text editor?

Dialog blows out upon bad keystroke. Please pardon the Q if it has been asked too frequently, I could not find it. When I hit a bad key in and uneditable control (ie <RTN> when tihe focus is on a button), my program exits. How can I prevent this?

Hi How do developers that use the SDK (not full-blown VS IDE) create dialog boxes? Do they type out the DIALOG resource section of the .rc file manually? Use a third-party program? Or cheat, and hop on a mate's PC that has got VS IDE whenever they want to create a dialog box? Or do they use a dialog editor that is actually included in the SDK that I'm failing to find?

Hi everyone, I have a frustrating problem. I have a Windows dialog based application (non-MFC). So, I created the dialog in the resource editor.

It has property fields for x and y pos but no fields for width and height. So, my question to you gurus is how I can specify the width and height of...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
