When I'm changing a forms name in the project and this form is a startup form (set in the project properties), I get an error that the function "sub main" is not found. The visual basic should automaticly change it's name in the project properties as it changes it automaticly in the code window.

Is there any fixes for it?
(I'm using Visual Studio .NET 2003)

Doubleclick the error. A dialog will popup that lets you select the new
startup form. If it doesn't, go to the project options dialog and set
the startup object there.

I know that I can change the startup form manually, but is there a way that it would change automaticly as the code windows does?

I don't think so. But that's a two-clicks task.

No. You'll have to wait for VS 2005.

Hi Alex,

Are you sure you want to change the Name of the class and not only the name
of the form which you can do with me.Text?

And when not, maybe you will tell us what is the reason that you want to
change the name of the Form (the object) and is it when you want to do that
a problem that you have to change the startup Form Class name in the project
properties (The startup form holds internally a Sub Main from the Form class
which it inherit)?

Does Visual Studio 2005 fixed this BUG?

Alex,

Actually I think what you are seeing as a bug is probably intended behavior.
It just isn't the most desirable behavior. Visual Studio does not crash
when you change the name of the startup form, it simply asks you to select a
new startup class.

That's what I meant by:

Hi Jeff,

You mean that when I in VS2005 change the name of the by the building of the
project by the wizard created form change, that that new name will be set as
the startup project?

I hope it is not.

By the way, I cannot call it a bug as you do, that when after that the
wizard did its work there is not wizard action anymore.
