Parameter is incorrect

[Lee Newson]

Hi,

I have a strange issue with a program i am writing in VB.NET. I have been
working on this program for about a month now and when i started working
this morning every time i hit backspace or delete i get an error message box
saying that a parameter is incorrect... When i left work yesterday it was
working fine, the project built with no errors or anything out of hte
ordinary. All i did today was write 2 lines of code into one of the
functions, then decided that they were wrong and tried to delete them...
this was when i first got the error message.

I have closed the solution (without saving changes) and then reloaded, but
the same error is appearing. The project builds without any errors or
warnings, and it runs fine, i have stepped through the program and done so
in such a way that i go through each of the functions in it, with no
problems at all.

Buts still when i am editing the code i get this error messge... has anyone
experienced this before?? It seems as tho it might be a bug in VS .NET as it
does not appear to be something to do with my program, however it is
becoming increasingly annoying as i am working.

Any suggestions / ideas as to the cause /solution to this?

cheers for any and all help

regards

Lee

Go to Tools, Add-In Manager and unload all add-ins and mark them not to load
on startup (until we discover the culprit) and reload VS.NET.

Also, you can try to close all IDE instances, open .NET DOS command prompt
and run

devenv.exe /setup

to reset your environment.
