my visual studio 2005 prof. is acting strange.

i cannot delete anymore the controls on the main form (the controls are buttons and panels nothing strange) of one of my projects.

can someone help me troubleshooting that beahaviour?

 

thanks a lot

Its difficult to diagnose a problem without more information. What happens when you try to delete them? Is it just on that form? Is that form special in any way? Did you make any particular changes to it before you started having the problem?

Just to be sure, but you weren't running the app at the time, were you?

Hello!

Just yesterday i have had the same problem, but in vs2003. The answer was simple (in that case) -- errors in c# text (i edited the text manually) made it impossible for designer to treat the objects defined in the text as consistent controls.

A simple check is to compile the form. If there are errors in sensible parts of the program (component declarations and deserialization), they must be fixed first.

HTH,
