We're running in a Citrix and RDP environment running on Windows Server 2003. We're starting to run into random and difficult to reproduct "Error creating window handle" error that seems to be an old fashion handle leak in our application. We're making heavy use of 3rd Party controls (Janus GridEX, Infralution VirtualTree, and .NET Magic docking) and we do a lot of dynamic loading and rendering of content based on metadata in our database. There's a lot of info on Google about this error, but not a lot of solid guidance about how to avoid issues in this area. Does the stackoverflow community have any good guidance for me for building handle-friendly winforms apps? .net winforms handles share|improve this question edited Feb 27 '13 at 8:15 Kiquenet 5,0672486148 asked Sep 18 '08 at 0:26 user8133 141125 See also [this post of mine about "Error creating window handle"][1] and how it relates to USER Objects and the Desktop Heap.

Before my project design and output http://stackoverflow.com/questions/88904/error-creating-window-handle works fine. Now, when I open one of the form of my project, it displays at the Task List which states "Error creating window handle." I did to step through the code and it returns no error and functional output. My problem is I can't see one of the form at the design time. Last edited by bevz; Sep 21st, 2005 at 07:55 PM.

I'd say the form's resource file has become corrupted. You could try right-clicking the form in the Solution Explorer and selecting Exclude From Project, then right-clicking the project and selecting Add Existing Item to re-add the form to the project and (hopefully) regenerate the resource file. If this doesn't work, you could do the same thing again but this time delete the RESX file for the form before re-adding it. You might want to make a backup copy of the solution folder before trying this, just in case. 2007-2016 Why is my data not saved to my database? | MSDN Data Walkthroughs MSDN "How Do I?"
