Unable to view form in designer view visual studio 2010 - vb.net

net programming . I created a form and add few controls in it. I close it then when I reopen it. Designer view was blank , was unable to add more controls in it. Have a look at this picture
Here is the code
Any help !

Try to exclude the form (all 3 files .vb, Designer.vb, .resx) and include it again into your project.

vb.net adding file to existing project

Sorry to bother you with the same problem.
I use Visual Studio for my small project. I'm a newbie.
I created separate project(s) Dailycount form & LiquorCount form.
I'm trying to bring the forms from both the project (using copy and Add Existing Items in solution explorer) to a Combined Project.
But when I open the forms in Design View. I just get the Blank form. when I build the application only 1 form is generated and another one is still blank form.
Files copied are:
Dialycount.vb
Dialycount.Designer.vb
Dialycount.resx
Liquorcount.vb
Liquorcount.Designer.vb
Liquorcount.resx
Trying to find the solution to this for the last 2 weeks and it's frustrating.

Display controls in Designer VB.Net 2013

I have a set of controls which are added dynamically to a panel. The number of controls depends on which tab a user selects from TabPage control, which is embedded in a form.
At the moment, the controls don't appear in Designer, but appear during execution.
I managed to display controls for other forms which are not dynamic by moving the non-design code to the vb file, but how can I display the other ones?
The only answer that I know of is to add your code in the .Designer.vb file of the Form.
BUT! I strongly advise you to avoid that if you are not sure how it works! Custom code in the .Designer. files can break your form design and project with possible random crashes.
Also, your code can be changed and removed by the Visual Studio designer:
Custom code in designer.vb file goes away when making edits in design mode
Instead, you can make the panels into custom user controls and add those to the tabs.

Is there a way to locate a code block from a GUI in debug mode?

I'm digging through a program that contains a lot of forms with names that aren't as descriptive as I'd like them to be. I am trying to edit some motor control functions, and in the GUI I am able to reach the form that contains buttons controlling the motor, but I'm not sure where the code is that controls this form. Is there a way to open up the code block corresponding to the form I navigate to from the GUI in debug mode?
Or, alternatively, how can I navigate through the GUI without running it? I know I can right click and do "View Code", so if I could navigate to the form I'd be able to that.
I am using VB.NET in Visual Studio 2010
Go by button text. In visual studio search(Ctrl+F) using the text, visual studio will find the designer.vb file holding the button with the text, once it is done try to look at the design of particular then you can figure out which form you need to look at.
thanks

create user form

hai
i create usercontrols in vb.net txtbox,button,namelist edit grid and userform. all contrils working properly. but user form not working. how to use this userform.please give any idea.
You don't use the toolbox to create a new form. Use the menu:
Project | Add Windows Form...
Alternatives.
You are running VB.NET 2005.
You have a project with a form "Form1".
You can see a menu: File, Edit, View, Project, ...
In the Project menu is a menu item Add Windows Form....
Tell me which step doesn't work.

Clean up Designer.vb file in Visual Studio 2008

I noticed that my Designer.vb file of one of my forms has a lot of controls that aren't even used or visible on my form. This is probably from copying controls from my other forms. Is there a way to clean up the Designer.vb file and get rid of all the unused controls?
**UPDATE: This is for a Windows Form project.
The only real solution I see is to copy all the controls into a new form by selecting them in the designer. This way all the not created controls should not follow you to the next form.
