Visual Styles option not even showing up

Hi all,

The "Enable XP visual styles" option that used to be available as an option in my VB2005
project on an XP machine has suddenly disappeared. I mean the entire "Windows application
framework properties" section on the "Application" tab of my project properties is gone.
It's only the case on this particular project. I had this option just a few days ago and
I haven't touched it since then until this morning. What could be going on?

Lance,

Perhaps if you don't have setting which you can afford to lose try removing
"My Project" folder, save the project, unload then reload followed by
clicking on the project node.
