VS.NET Dialog editor blows up

[_JoeD]

I've experienced this several times now: VS net spontaneously vaporizes
controls from a dialog or reverts to older code, even if the dialog has
(supposedly) been saved.

Has anyone seen this?

only when pressing <CTRL>-Z for an undo.

Interesting. Does it blow up later, well after ^Z is pressed?

I have had the same problem happening to me. I have never been able to
figure out what causes it. There is an article in the KB that talks
about a similar issue but it didn't really help me. If you look at the
code in InitializeComponent, you can see that the controls are there,
just not displayed.

In the end, it seems that closing the Design View window and recompiling
fixes the problem, at least for me.
