What's up with User Controls?
-
Hi, For ages now, I've not been able to insert ANY user controls into my windows forms, they appear on the toolbar, but when i go to insert them, it just says that it cant find the object. this is happening in all of my applications now, and even reseting the toolbar and then adding references from scratch doesn't work. has anyone had any problems like this? or any ideas of how to solve it? all my work has ground to a halt, because i use user controls all the time, and not being able to insert them, and then fiddle with the properties etc makes it very difficult. I can insert them programmatically without any errors though. any ideas? thanks in advance! Dave Kerr focus_business@hotmail.com www.focus.esmartweb.com

I had a coworker with the same problem. His solution was to reinstall visual studio which did the trick for him. Daniel E. Blanchard

I have had some luck in deleting the .suo file associated with the project. It seems that this file containes references that sometimes get out of sync with the rest of the project. Visual Studio.NET will recreate the file the next time you load the project.
