I've been trying all the Express versions of J#, C# and VB.NET and suddenly
I can't open a VB Form anymore. The message is "There is no editor
available for (formX.vb) Make sure the application for the file type (.vb)
is installed." I've uninstalled everything including the .NET framework 1.1
and 2.0, and reinstalled, and the problem persists. Any ideas?

Did you go into file types and make sure that .vb is associated with the
editor you want?

The association seems fine. But you did make me take a look at the
Tools->Options->Windows Forms Designer in VB and I get an "Error Loading
Property Page" in the display panel.
