Code disappearing from InitializeComponent in VS 2003

[Winshent]

I have read many threads which indicate that this was a problem with
version 2002. Why should i be suffering this?

I am using VB.NET 2003 Standard Edition...

is it still a problem with 2003?

I have used the wizards to generate the connection and adapter, which
generates the code in 'InitializeComponent', and i have stored the
connection string within web.config and it seems to get rid of this
every so often.

Is there a quick work around or patch?

Hi Winshent,

Are you manually adding any code to InitializeComponent? What code exactly
is being removed?

There is a bug that can cause this code to be removed when you change the
EnableViewState property. If that's what is happening to you, you need to
call in to us so that we can deliver that hotfix to you. Please, I don't
want to see a barrage of people e-mailing me directly asking for the fix!
You need to call us so that we can track who gets it.

Winshent,

First of all, you didn't answer my question! Did you manually add code
to the InitializeComponent method? It seems to me that you are saying that
you did. If so, therein lies your problem. You should not directly modify
that code. If you do, your code will be modified. That's why we place the
large comment block warning you not to modify it.

If you didn't add code manually, you can call your local office to get the
hotfix. You can find a number at http://support.microsoft.com.

The only code i added was (which disappeared every so often):
(System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings.Get("ConnectionS
tring"))

on the end of:
Me.WizConnection = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection

occasionally the complete line would disappear..



Here is the code which was generated after using the Adapter and
Connection wizards:

Is this an issue that falls over in to other projects than just web? I seem
to be having some property values disappearing in my InitializeComponent
method as well. This is for a windows project. First a bunch of data
bindings were being lost, and then the same property on all of one type of
control were lost and I had to go back and manually reset them.

Any ideas?

Winshent,

First of all, you didn't answer my question! Did you manually add code
to the InitializeComponent method? It seems to me that you are saying that
you did. If so, therein lies your problem. You should not directly modify

Winshent,

Don't modify / add / delete code in InitializeComponent. Instead, use
OnInit.
