Protected types can only be decalred inside of a class
I am using VS2005Pro Beta2 to modify a program originally written in VB2005 Express Beta2. In the Express version it compiles just fine, but when I try to compile it in VS2005 then I constantly get an error saying "Protected types can only be decalred inside of a class". The error is found in the Application.Designer.vb file which is auto-generated.
So my question is: Is this a general problem with VS2005 or is it me? I'm also having troubles compiling other projects so I think there's a bigger problem with VS2005. Is there a solution to this problem?

Here's the code generated from my copy of vb 2005 b2
Note, if you changed the name of your app or form1 or splashscreen, remember to rename the variables

NamespaceHope this template helps.
Thanks for the code sample. I think it is pretty much like the one I posted, except my variables are changed. I have taken out the splash screen and it goes directly to the first form. The problem now is that since I erased the Form1 and set the frmLogin as the startup form the program insists on starting up in Form1 which it creates as an empty grey form. No login, no access to the rest of the application.
I should probably mention there was no problems running this program through the express edition.
