In the Visual Basic project properties dialog on one of the tabs (Application), is a drop down box for selecting the \"startup object\". This can be either a Main method or a System.Windows.Forms instance (or System.Windows.Window for WPF). When you do a rename on a form (say from the code editor in source or from the solution explorer) currently set as the startup form the rename doesn't cascade to the startup object project property cause the project to enter an invalid state where the user must now manually reset this project property from the now nonexistent Form to the new name. This is a huge annoyance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe fix for the bug (until Microsoft addresses) can be found here: \u003cbr\u003ehttp: \/\/www.jamesfo","brand":"Sams Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45118299570327,"sku":"9780672337451","price":2692.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780672337451.webp?v=1767143771","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/visual-basic-2015-in-24-hours-sams-teach-yourself-9780672337451","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
