Recover a .vb file from a .Designer.vb

[Jerry Spence1]

I have a project that has these files:

frmCD.resx
frmCD.Designer.vb
frmCD.vb

I had a virus which wiped out the frmCD.vb. Is it possible to regenerate it
from the other files?

Use Windows Notepad to create a text file and add the following:

Public Class frmCD

End Class

Save this and rename the file as frmCD.vb

You should then be able to open the form and work with it in VS.

All the controls should still be on the form. Any event handlers you may
have
added or any other code that was stored in this file is obviously lost,
unless
you can recover the file from backup.

No there is no redundancy between those files :
- the resx file contains the resources
- the designer file contains all the code created by the designer (i.e. the
code that initialize the UI)
- the frmCD.vb file contains the user defined code (basically the logic
behind the UI) and so you'll have to recode this one

frmCD.Designer.vb is your partial class file that holds the places and
properties of your UI controls and sequence of subscibed events using
WithEvents clause, generally created by Windows Form Designer.

frmCD.vb is your coding file(main class file) that is used to hold
custom codes which you wrote, including methods and other objects. So,
if you lost and if you're unable to recover frmCD.vb file, you must re-
code that file because frmCD.Designer.vb doesn't know what to do
alone.

Hope this helps,
