I have migrated a VB6 application to VB.NET. While I haven't got all
the kinks worked out, it is able to compile and partially run. It
consists of a main from that has a lot of controls that are
hidden/shown depending on application state. When trying to view the
form Visual Studio will crash. While I can view the code, i usually
get the following error when viewing the form:

The following exception has occurred:

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an
object

anyway to track down what's causing this?

THANKS

After calling microsoft support, they narrowed in down to the Coolbar
control. After replacing the control with the .NET equivalent all was
fixed. Since it was a bug, I wasn't even charged for the call!
