Hi,

Can anyone explain (or provide a good linky) what all the files and folders do once i save a vb.net project. E.g. PDB files, obj folder etc etc.

Thanks.

PDB file is the debug information, so that the debugger can tell you what line of the mess that is VB.NET source the error occured on.

obj folder contains the individual byte code before it's linked into the assembly in the bin folder

anything else?

no idea about those, my nice neat C# projects don't have them

I suspect that the designer file is the one that contains the layout for your user interfaces (the machine generated bits). and the my App is anyone's guess sorry :confused:
