Hello all of you,

I am using .Net 2005 for the development of Pocket PC application.
After double clicking on Form in solution explorer, i am getting the
following error

illegal characters in path .....
System.IO.Path ...
.....
.....

Can you please help me to fix this error. I am not able to open the
Form in Design Mode.

Regards,
Milind

Are you talking about
Try to relocate you solution.
I would start at c:\myProject.
If it helps, I guess the IDE can't get you project's file because of some 
specific language characters in the path.

Hi,

I am able to Open the Project, problem is not with opening the

Just because you are able to open the project doesn't mean there isn't a 
problem with the path. Looks like a VS bug to me. 

If you can post the path and name of the project, I will try to replicate 
here and post a bug via Microsoft Connect.

What ver of VS are you using?
