Morgan,

Sorry maybe I did not make myself clear. The steps to recreate what I’m talking about are:

1. Add a windows form to a project.
2. Add one or more command buttons, or any other controls, to the form.
3. Save the form and rebuild the project.
4. Now add a form inheriting from the first form.
5. In the inherited form the command button(s) properties cannot be changed in the properties page.

If the controls are private when added to form one, how can they be set to public in the first form so their properties can be changed in the properties page?


Regards
