Adding a variable

Hi

Hope somebody can help me

When I go into a dialog resource and add a tool e.g. ComboBox then right click on it and choose Add Variable, Visual Studio Crashes with a Microsoft Visual Studio Not Responding. It then stays like this for a long time before the Add Variable dialog box pops up.

Is there something I can do to fix this? Is it a corrupt file somewhere.

Thank you

Hi

Managed to replace the project from a backup. Fortunately not to much had been done between backups.

Created a new test project and it worked properly. So my only guess is some how something got corrupted along the line somewhere.

Thank you

    • Check your project is a MFC Style.
    • Remove (Delete) your dialog class with the specified Dialog ID, in Resource file (*.rc).
    • Restart Visual Studio 2022 (Command Prompt > devenv /ResetSettings )
    • Re-Create dialog class with "Class Wizard", then Add Variable.
