Sorry it took me a while to get back to you...

This was sort of an odd one...it's due to the fact that Visual Studio "runs" some of the code in your form at design time. Oddly enough it doesn't happen with all forms, and as you can see in the error stack trace Visual Studio is trying to run the ancenstor form's mmBaseForm_Load() method. Overriding this in the subclass didn't fix it. I had to go back to mmBaseForm.mmBaseForm_Load() and change the code to the following:

protected virtual void mmBaseForm_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	if (OakLeaf.MM.Main.mmAppBase.IsRunning)
	{
		this.SetFocus(this.FocusOnLoadControl, true);

		if (mmAppDesktop.SecuritySetupMode)
                {
                    this.OnSecuritySetup(true);
                }
	}
}

I'll make this change in the next release, but for now you can change the MM.NET source code and recompile the Mere Mortals Framework Windows Forms project.

Best Regards,
