Hi:

We are using VS2010, .net framework 3.5, with TeeChartNET2011_4.1.2012.01030 (installs as *.1032, actually). As some point last summer we upgraded to this version and had no issues. At some point since then, something has gong wrong. Now, when we attempt to edit the vb form, we the error "There is no editor available for <path>" message.

We have tried everything from reinstalling your kit, to removing the reference to reverting our source code back. No mater what we do, we cannot make this work. We can't edit the form and when we build and run, we never to get to form_load(). So there is some install/config/reference issue that we just can't figure out.

Do you have any suggestions, or a procedure that will allow to reset things to the point were we can edit the vb form, remove and then add back the controls and get things back on track?

We have put a lot of time into this already and are now seriously frustrated.

Thanks,

Matt

Hello Matt,

Could you please send us a simple project, where the problem appears, because we try to solve it?

Thanks,

Hi Sandra:

After more research, we eventually found the difference between a working build and a non working build. It was:

<Compile Include="TeeChartForm2.vb">
vs:
<EmbeddedResource Include="TeeChartForm2.vb">

At some point the project settings changed. We are confused why or how this could have happened. Do you know if there is anything the Dev Studio UI that controls this? Meaning that someone might have accidentally changed this setting? It's quite strange.

Thanks,

Matt

Ok, thanks for information. Would be very grateful if you can send your project so we can check what is the problem and replay correctly your questions. Could you please send a project for us?

Thanks,

Hi Sandra:

The project is too large and complex to send you -- and we have other 3rd party controls you would need to make it compile correctly.

Since we already identified the issue as a problem with the project file, I'm including that.

Please let me know if you need any more information.

Thanks,

Matt

This was probably accidentally changed at Form's "Build Action" property as shown here:

Perfect! Thanks Narcís.
