Trouble inherting form in C# -- Timmer --


I have created a form called frmDialogBase with several "common controls" on it. It is a part of my project and it builds and displays just fine.

I now want to create a specialized color configure form that inherits from the frmDialogBase, I follow the steps in the .NET walkthrough and everything compiles just fine.

When I look at the code for my new form, there IS a default constructor that just calls InitializeComponent() and there are NO trapped events in either form at this time.
( if found a post on MSDN warning about the default constructor )

My class is declared:
public partial class frmPickColors : frmDialogBase
{...}

It compiles fine.

When I try to invoke the designer on my frmPickColors, I get a nastygramme -
Object referenct not set to an instance of an object at System.Reflection.Assembly.nload(AssemblyName fileName, String codeBase, Evidence assemblySecurity, Assembly locationHint,
StackCrawlMark& stackMark, Boolean throwOnFileNotFound, Boolean forIntrospection)

I am using VS 2.0.50727 on Win XP Pro with all patches applied.

Anyone have any ideas????? this should be a simple thing to do. Thanks!
