    Can anyone tell me if it is possible to draw shapes and have them visible in the visual express editor. I can draw them in my code but it would be easier to use in the form editor. I was hoping to be able to add rectangles and lines just like buttons and menus...

      No, Visual Studio, even the most expensive versions, is still not a painting program. You want to draw lines, the IDE doesn't give you much to help. I find using graph paper is a good way to work stuff out if you need to.

          yEd[^] seems to be pretty cool.

            I don't know it they'll show up in the C# toolbox, but the VB.NET PowerPack[^] has Line and Shapes controls that might do what you want.

              Oh, I'm sorry, I just misunderstood the question. You can try FlowChart.Net[^]
