Inherited form

I am inheriting from a form that has a tab control on it.
The tab control has two pages. I can't seem to access
the second page in the designer for the inherited form in
order to drop controls on it. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi,

Make sure that Modifers property of each control you want access from within
inhertied form is set to Protected at least.

I guess I would have to know what you mean by "not being able to edit the forms". Does this mean you get an error in the designer when you try to display an inherited form? Does this mean the controls are visible, but you can't move them around? What exactly does it mean? There are a variety of methods for editing visuallly inherited forms and I've never had a problem with it in any version of VS.

I'm trying to use a template form I created. When I add an inherited form to my project, I get the error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. when the inherited form is displayed in the designer. Last week I used the same template and didn't have any trouble creating inherited forms. I can look at the new form in code view, and don't see any obvious errors. Help!

Hi, First, sorry for the crosspost, but it seemed appropriate... :) I've come accross what I consider to be a bug, but I don't know if it's already known or not. (VS .Net 2003 Pro - VB.Net) Whilst playing with inherited forms, I created a simple base form containing a single button. I set this buttons' Click event to be public overridable and put "me.Close" in the code.

I am getting strange resizing problems when using an inherited form. Controls are moving themselves seemingly randomly, but reproducibly. "frmBase" is my base class (a windows form), and contains a few controls anchored to the sides of the form. "frmChild" inherits from "frmBase"... and the controls appear on the inherited form as expected. However things start going wrong when I place addition controls on the "frmChild" form. When I...

I have a simple form with a panel that is docked in the base form. The panel has three controls - two buttons and one treeview. I use "Inherited Form" when creating a second form derived from this parent form. The only thing is there are no controls in the inherited form. I made all the base controls "protected". What am I dong wrong? -- ----------- Thanks,

Hello everyone, My problem is with an inherited Form. The base Form has a few controls on it that are anchored such that they move as the Form is resized. While in the designer, the inherited Form works perfectly but when I run the program the controls on the inherited Form are positioned based on the size of the base Form instead of the inherited Form. The controls move approriately as the Form is resized but they are never in the...
