    Big mistake. I would love to believe that Mickeysoft did this intentionally because they want to send VB to the boneyard, but the truth seems to be that they are working hard on driving away all developers.

    I would like to say that VB is Microsoft's answer to JavaScript, but JavaScript came later. So, JavaScript is the rest of the world's Basic with C like syntax.

      Exactly. I ever liked intepreters, even back in the days of 8 bit processors. A C compiler on 8 bit computers was not really an option back then, so I just went on with machine code and never looked back.

        I always load my forms into a text editor. Never any problem.

        I don't think it is anything to do with .sln or .vbproj files... I have found now, that almost invariably when I open a project, either by opening the .sln or .vbproj file, the first time you do so, and look at the design page of a form, it is full of errors and you are unable to view the form. So, now I just close down Visual Studio altogether, start it up again and load exactly the same file in the same way and it all works fine - the design page shows my form as it should be. Gawd knows why... I think over xmas I'll format the HDD, reinstall Windows from scratch and reinstall VS - the PC is taking longer to boot up anyway, so it is about time, I suppose. And the TV won't be worth watching anyway... :-O

          (To the OP) ... Don't listen to these coding snobs ... VB (particularly the .Net version) is a fine language. -CM

          Yeah and you should be fined for using it.

            You're joking, right? (Tough to tell in a text-only message).
