User Control Disappears from WinForm

[Guest]

I created a user control and drag it onto a Winform

I run the app OK but when I return to the dev environment the user control disappears

Has anyone seen this b4? Whats the deal with that?

Thx in advance.

Hi Chris,

Try looking in the "Windows Form Designer Generated Code" region to see if your control exists in code. It may be just hidden behind other control(s).

If the control dissapears--even from the generated code--try restarting Visual Studio and add the control again. If this happens again, you might want to open a support call to Microsoft. If it's a bug (which it very likely could be), they will refund your payment.

Take care,

Eric

This bug has been discussed zillions of times in this and other forums.
There's still no good solution, as far as I can tell.
