Its with vb.net vs 2008 pro
and I am using a laptop to do the programmign - and its a nvidia card that
does have other issues I know of that drivers are not available.
I do suspect it could be the graphics driver, I will be upping the ram thru
the bios on the graphics chipset to see if that changes anything this
saturday.
It happens a lot when flip flopping between design mode and code mode.
The fact that it doesnt happen for you makes me feel 'better' knowing that
my first suspicions were correct and its my hardware cause im cheap :)
It still is bearable for me as I am not a gung ho .net programmer - im still
in learnign stages - but I know for later ill have to upp the horsepower.
Thanks
Miro

>>I have a re-occuring problem in vs2008 and I have wondered if someone else
has run into this.
As I flip between 'ViewCode' and 'Design' mode of a form, suddenly what
will happen is that the form display will be totally blank / totally
grey.
The only thing I can do is to click the 'x' and close the 'Design' mode
of the form and then go to the solutions explorer and re-open it.

What project type? I don't see this with C# Windows Forms, WPF or Web
projects.
Have you checked/updated your graphics drivers recently? Sometimes
obsolete drivers can cause odd symptoms such as those you describe.
