Hi,

I am working on a project in visual c++ 8 beta 2 using a windows forms application. At a certain point visual just shut down and after reloading the project I can't load any of the forms I have created anymore... The following error appears for all of the forms:

One or more errors encountered while loading the designer. The errors are listed below. Some errors can be fixed by rebuilding your project, while others may require code changes. Clicking on each error will take you to the line of code that caused it. 

The file 'c:\Develop\KicTools\Src\KicTools\KicEditorTool\FormMain.h' does not support code parsing or generation because it is not contained within a project that supports code.

Does anyone have a clue as to how to fix this problem? I have created about 30 forms already and restarting is just not an option...

Thanks in advance,

I have the same problem with VS 2008. I create a new C++-project (MFC-DLL with/clr), then add a new Windows Form class and the error described above happens.

Another project created with VS 2005 and converted to VS 2008hasthe same error in the forms designer.

I have the same problem, using VS 2008 and C-Sharp. I have not been able to get this to work either. Has anyone figured out how to correct this yet?

I don't know if this can help you, but in C++, I found a solution to avoid/repair this problem.

I close the solution. I go to the solution's file folder and delete the solution's .NCB and .SUO files. After, I reload the solution in visual studio 2008. In the solution file explorer, I right click on the targeted form source and select the "View code"(not"View Designer"). When the source file is opened, then after I right click over thesource text and select View in designer. All it's fine that way!

Hope this helps,

Mario
