"There is no editor available for ../Form1.vb" error?_问答_开发者

I was happily using VB.NET, saved, and, well, there was a blackout.

Probably lucky? Well, now I open my project just fine, double click the Form1.vb and.... "There is no editor available for ../Form1.vb, make sure the application for the file type (.vb) is installed."

.......... Did something go wrong with my project? Is it dead?

Windows 7, Visual Basic 2010 Express.

What shoul开发者_高级运维d I do?

The same thing just occurred to me but I couldn't get it fixed trying the previous answers. For some reason, one of my references Microsoft.Office.Core had a yellow exclamation point on it.

Simple Solution

Solution Explorer
- Expand References
- Right click on the item with "Yellow Triangle w/ "!" point"
- Select "Remove"
Open the "Build" Menu at the top
- Select Rebuild "filename"

Once this was done, I could open my forms correctly.

It's difficult to imagine what you're seeing. I've seen plenty of cases where the design view won't open for whatever reason, but I've never been unable to view the code for the form.

First thing to try is navigating to your project folder in Windows Explorer, right-clicking on the Form1.vb file, and trying to open it in Notepad. This is pretty much the ultimate test. If you can open it in Notepad, your work is salvageable. If not, the file is corrupted and your best bet is to start over. I suppose if you really feel that you have a lot invested, you could try various file recovery techniques, but considering it's a single form file, I seriously doubt it's worth the time or expense.

If that succeeds, and you can open the file in Notepad, select all the code and copy it to the clipboard. Now go back into Visual Studio, and add a new Form to your project. Delete everything in the new form's code file and paste the salvaged code from your original form back in. You still won't be able to open the form in the designer though, and you'll likely be missing references to all of your controls. Ignore all those squiggly underlines for now.

To fix that, you need to go back to Windows Explorer, and find a file named Form1.Designer.vb. This is the partial class that the designer saves information into; it contains declarations for all of your controls and the properties you set for those controls at design time. Just as before, right-click on this file and open it in Notepad. Select everything and copy it to the clipboard. Now go back to Visual Studio, and click on the "Show All Files" button at the top of the Solution Explorer (hover over them to read the ToolTips). You'll see a bunch of extra junk show up, but what you're primarily interested in are the drop-down arrows that just appeared to the side of every Form class. Expand the new form you added in the previous step, and find it's .Designer file. Delete everything that's in there now, and paste in the code from your salvaged form's .Designer file.

You now have an exact copy of your old form in your project. You can delete that old, corrupted form file, because you're no longer using it. You'll also probably want to change the name of the new file itself by right-clicking on it in the Solution Explorer—right now, it's named Form1 just like your old form, because it's an exact copy of that form. The code says it's name is Form1 and couldn't care less about your file name. Clean and rebuild your project, and if things go your way, everything should be back to normal.

Windows 7/ Vista: Try right clicking the .vb file and selecting the "Previous versions" tab. When the list has loaded (if it has) select the most recent file from the list and select "Restore". Now reload your project, try doing this with all of the form files, e.g. "Form1.resx" and "Form1.designer.vb" and "Form1.vb" and then reload the project.

It implies that the file is corrupted.Replace an uncorrupted copy of that file in the corresponding directory and then try.

I had the same problem and it was from a bad reference to Excel caused by copying the project from a Win7 machine to a Win8 machine probably.

Open the solution explorer and expand the references You will see two references with the yellow exclamation mark icon beside them indicating a problem - Microsoft.Office.Core - Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel Right click on both these icons and click remove Your form should load now, if not, save the project, close it then reopen it.

i have this problem too . when i restart Visual Studio the form create successfully and show it's designer.

I've created the Form with a different version of VS, other than 2012 (eg VS 2010, VS 2013, VS 2015; I've used VS 2015). Save the Form in the solution, open the solution with VS 2012 and include the form in the solution. It worked for me.

To fix the problem you need :

1) NotePad++

And you should follow this simple steps :

1) Close Visual Studio .

2) Go to the Backup Folder of your VS version usually in : "C:\Users(your user name)\Documents\Visual Studio (year)\Backup Files\your project or application name" .

3) Open the last Backup file of your corrupted file , usually the name format is : "Recovered-month.-day-year-time.(Your File Name).cs" with NotePad++ , and copy the source code .

4) Go to your corrupted file in the project folder and open it with NotePad++ , Edit => Select All => Past the source code and Save .

5) Go to windows start list and search for : "Visual Studio Tools" folder , open it and double click on : "Developer Command Prompt for VS(year)" .

6) Write this two codes in the Developer Command Prompt : "devenv.exe /setup" and then "devenv /resetskippkgs" .

7) Open your project .

Note : if this didn't work for you try to do the steps before in this arrangement :

1) => 2) => 3) => 4) => 7) => 1) => 5) => 6) => 7)

and your problem will be fixed .

It works 100% for me , i hope this will helps you

Try changing the security permissions on the form affected. Right click the file, go to properties then security and change the access ability to everyone.
