        Yeah, perhaps so. I get a message saying 'parameter is incorrect' when I try to open my main form ( which I opened OK yesterday ). If I'm lucky, the IDE does not close. I've been editing some of the user controls on the form, the IDE can display all of those OK still. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

              You probably put a class at the top of the form, or something else that the deserializer doesn't understand. I get that too in VS2003. Marc My website Traceract Understanding Simple Data Binding Diary Of A CEO - Preface

                OK - it worked in VS2003, I've never had a problem. You're saying that there's something near the top of the MainForm class that is confusing it, a seperate class or struct ? Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

                            I would be interested in an RSS feed, myself. I already have your blog RSS feed. -- modified at 19:18 Wednesday 2nd November, 2005 [Edit:] I meant Marc's feed, of course! I think I posted this on the wrong post :-) [/Edit]

                                      Maybe we're seeing the ? If so, I believe if you delete the obj folders in your project, do a clean, then rebuild, it works and the form shows up again.

                                        You didn't read my CP Users Guide very well. You *must* always check to see *IF* your post in fact posted *despite* any error you might be given. In my opinion this mechanism was introduced to slow down posts to at least 1 minute in between though up to 10 minutes if the FORCE_500 flag is high. You always check first, repost if necessary. I guess I need to *repost* my Users Guide. :-D

                                          Here's the first tip you can post. Tip #1: Do not buy VS 2005 yet. Instead wait until your peers quit posting annoyances regarding VS 2005 (wait until SP1) then by VS 2005 which really means buy VS 2006. - Rex
