Form cannot be designed

[Will]

I have recently installed v1.1 of the .NET framework, and
in the project I am working on, I have changed the
reference path to refer to the new framework. Now I get
an error message saying that "The base
class 'System.Windows.Forms.Form' cannot be designed"

If I change back to the older version of the framework it
seems to work fine, but I need to use some of the newer
classes only available in v1.1

All help will be most appreciated

Do you use VS .NET 2002 or VS .NET 2003?

I'm fairly sure it's 2002, well when I go to the 'About
Microsoft Development Environment...' box, its says it is
2002
