hai

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.

This is my first application using VB.NET.
I am trying to add new windows form to my application. I followed the tutorials too but can't add the new form .
I am trying to add new form by right clicking in my project -> add -> Form (Windows Form). But this form does not show designer.vb code. I do not know what am I doing wrong. I just want to create a new windows form like the default form created in the project. The default form created in the project has designer.vb and resx file.
When I try to add new form via Project menu, I can't find any of the icons that resemble to the icon of the default form Form1.vb.
Please see the attached image for details.
You can do this two ways:
Add->new->new item. You see this:
Then you get this:
So, from above, you select Form (windows form)
but, since creating a new form is "common"
Then you can use what you choose:
right click, add->Forms (windows form)
that will then launch the SAME screen as above, but WITH the forms already selected - hardly saves you much effort and time - but either way, you can then type in the form name - BUT BE CAREFULL!!! - WHAT you type in, if you change the extension, you will wind up creating somthing VERY differnt.
So, ONLY edit the name part, so when I do above, and choose forms (windows form), then I get this:
But ONLY edit the text "form1" and do NOT change, or mess with the .vb that follows.
So, I can chose (set) the form name to MyCoolForm like this
So, don't put spaces in the name, and LEAVE alone the .vb part. That is also imporant.
Now, hit add,
and you should see this:
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
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.
I've been working in the creation of some custom components adding functionalites to the basic components such as a Datagridview.
Now I want to create a custom Form ... I mean, when I choose add new item in the VS menu, there is a Windows form and some varians of it like an about box, or Dialog, that are simple Forms with a custom controls already on it.
I want to have a login form for my set of applications, so this login is avialable for all the development team to use it in the different modules.
How can I develop the form and then add it to the "Add New Item" screen?
Thanks !!!
I suggest you read this (assuming you use MSVS 2010, if not, there should be articles for other versions):

I found the Way to create a Form with special usage, and then deploy it to other applications, like a login screen.
I used the Inherit Forms :) ... here is some documentations, it was really easy !!!
http://visualbasic.about.com/od/usingvbnet/a/inheripckr_2.htm
The form is later deploy using a dll just like a component.
Greetigns !!!
i want to see the designer code ..
i want to see how myForm is generated using or extending form
i mean in C# i can see the code in designer.cs file...but in vb.net i am nt able to see that..
In VB.Net, in order to see the designer files, you have to click the toggle button above the solution explorer (show all files).
