I don't think it is anything to do with .sln or .vbproj files...
I have found now, that almost invariably when I open a project, either by opening the .sln or .vbproj file, the first time you do so, and look at the design page of a form, it is full of errors and you are unable to view the form.
So, now I just close down Visual Studio altogether, start it up again and load exactly the same file in the same way and it all works fine - the design page shows my form as it should be. Gawd knows why...
I think over xmas I'll format the HDD, reinstall Windows from scratch and reinstall VS - the PC is taking longer to boot up anyway, so it is about time, I suppose. And the TV won't be worth watching anyway...

1Minute Nature is a Dutch series of short vignettes in which children from the Netherlands reflect on how they experience nature. In this episode, 11-year-old Lieuwe recalls finding his pet cat dead, and gives an imaginative (if not entirely accurate) account of what will happen to the cat’s body after he buries it, grappling with the universal human struggle to process death by finding a slightly macabre, but funny link between himself and the dead pet.

I think this boy has a future in ecology.

There's also this one, but as far as I can tell, it only translates single words (and it's not very good at that either):

Not as funny as I thought:
if 't be true( document. Signatures != null)
{
f'reach(documentsignature signature in document. Signatures )
{
database. Documentsignatures. Fordid(signature );
}
}

A cookery book from 1615: Recipe for pancakes etc:
Countrey Contentments, or the English Huswife[^]
Interesting English, reads quite like modern english, except for the switching of v and u, and the f for an s.
It has some great spellings too, I want to bring back 'slic't' and 'chopt', 'mixe' and 'beate'!

The "elongated" f for s doesn't bother me. (It's like half an eszett in German), but I've never seen an actual f used. Weird.
|
|
|
|
|
It isnt an actual f, I just cant find the elongated s that looks like an f without the cross bar on my keyboard!
|
|

Trivial information alert.
This is actually called a descending s. It was used for the s anywhere in the word except at the end (with rare exceptions), and not the second s when doubled. E.g., I once viʃited Miʃsiʃsippi. The trip was a ʃucceʃs.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

5 lines up on the second page - last word 'frycafe'. The first f is an actual f. Also fryingpan in the middle of that paragraph.

Syntax error. The second s would be a short s, as in "The purʃuit of happineʃs."

I know that. You know that. I'm sure Stan knew that. But it's funnier that way.

For "veale toasts", you "beat" it normally (can't believe I actually wrote that!)
Two different spellings for the same word on one page. I'd say they should have gotten themselves a better proof reader!

What are you insinuating on their proof reader? Their reader was at the very least 60% (alcohol) proof.

Yeah, did you see the two spellings for cinnamon?
It is just random isn't it, what ever the writer feels like at the time!

Interesting. No I hadn't noticed that, but I'm not surprised. Since it's written for housewives, it's probably written BY a housewife. And we all know that they tend to change their mind whenever they feel like it
I noticed that they used quite a lot of nutmeg, though. I knew a lady called Meg once that fit that description extremely well.
Any way: What the he** is a quelquechofe? (I know what the French word means, but what kind of dish is it?)
