I am developing an application for windows CE 6.0.
When i start a windows CE 5.0 device application project, IDE shows me the form in the solution explorer but there is no form layout in the designer. Instead, it appears as a control similar to openFileDialog control. alt text http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/7130/formdesignererrorpictur.jpg
The same problems does not occur if i try it on a windows application project. Did i miss installing any required API libraries?
I form layout is degraded because of conflicting APIs. Because multiple versions of the same library can be the cause of such a problem. I had installed .net compact framework 1, 2 , 3 and 3.5 SP1. I uninstalled all and then when Visual Studio asked to install .net compact framework 2. I got the appropriate layout back.
