    Hi, I'm getting a very weird error message whenever I try to add a Windows Form to my project. The new form is added, but when I try to add anything to it (buttons, labels) I get a "File exists" error that won't let me save. I have .Net 2008. Has anybody had a similar problem? thanx

      Possibly you are using a name for the form that already exists as a file (but not in the project?) Try using a different name. Is the project in source control? Perhaps there is a file with that name in source control that you haven't synced up with yet?
