The designer cannot process the code at line 115,

Question

This is the error I get when I open the designer in VB.NET

The designer cannot process the code at line 115, please see the task list for details. The code within the method 'InitializeComponent' is generated by the designer and should not be manually modified. Please remove any changes and try opening the designer again.

I have had this happen MANY times now.

Here's my designer code:

<Global.Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.DesignerGenerated()> _
Partial Class main
    Inherits MetroFramework.Forms.MetroForm

    'Form overrides dispose to clean up the component list.
    <System.Diagnostics.DebuggerNonUserCode()> _
    Protected Overrides Sub Dispose(ByVal disposing As Boolean)
        Try
            If disposing AndAlso components IsNot Nothing Then
                components.Dispose()
            End If
        Finally
            MyBase.Dispose(disposing)
        End Try
    End Sub

If anyone knows why this is happening or how to fix it I would really love it.

If you need anymore information just ask and I will give you what you need to hopefully resolve my issue.

Answer 1

Comment out the line in question. The example above has “The designer cannot process the code at line 115” so comment out Line 115. Then open the file. It would behoove you to look at why that line is causing the error in the first place. Check if it was “manually modified” as the error message suggests.

Answer 2

I know the post is old and you might have resolved this by now, but I ran into a similar issue using MetroFrameWork. Everything was working fine, I saved and closed. Upon re-opening the project, error in the designer.

I don't know for sure what is causing the issue, but I know how to resolve it :)

It seems, randomly, a line of code is added in the designer, something like:

Me.*nameofthecomponent*.Lines = New String(-1) {}

In your code, at line 119, you have:

Me.txtFileName.Lines = New String(-1) {}

So the trick is to simply delete that line. Whatever line the designer says it's unable to process, just look at the next un-commented line, you shall find the culprit.

In your above code, you have other occurrences at lines:

• 262
• 275

Hope that helps :)
