Forms in VS Express C++ and Help

N

Neil Jones

Hello,

I am using Visual Studio Express C++ 2010 for my application. I have
created a form and some code that goes with the dialog. After working
on the code for the form, I want to see the form and don't know how to
find it. I need to delete one control from the dialog and add two
different controls. How can I see the dialog/form?

Also, I downloaded the help files via the "Manage Help Settings" and
installed them locally. When I click on "Help->View Help", I still keep
getting a web page in my browser with "The topic you requested could not
be found in local help." message. How can I access the local help
information?

Thank you in advance for any information and help.

In your Solution Explorer window, right-click on your <your form name>.rc
file and select View Design. To see your code, right-click the .rc and
select View Code. If you have tabs at the top of your editor window in
Express, you can switch views by clicking on the tabs.
