form is only opened i code view

IDE: VS .NET 2003
OS XP Pro

I have a solution with 8 projects.... in some of these projects the forms
are only opened in code view (when double clicked on them)... And in
solution explorer these forms are shown without the "form-icon" on the left
side of the form...

I want to be be able to open the form in "design mode" again... how do I do
that???

Hi,

There should be an error in the code handled by the designer, or also is
possible that the .resx file is not present.

do you get any message in the form or in the task list?

cheers,

In the problem forms I made some changes to the code..., just so I could
save the form again...
While I was writing the statement: MessageBox.Show... I noticed that the
form icon on the left side of the form in solution explorer appeared.... So
I saved my work and double clicked on the form.. The form was opened in
design mode....

May be this is a bug in VS?
