    I am new to VB because I am a student.  My question is, I am developing a simple project in VB with about 5 or 6 forms, and in my Solution Explorer Window, two of the forms have tiny little black arrows next to their icons to the left of their names.  The reason for my question is, I was trying to upload the whole project file to Google Docs so a fellow classmate can look at it, however he could not access and code the two pages with the arrows.  He was only able to open and code the other forms.  Can somebody tell me what the arrows mean, and how to possibly disable them, or change the forms so that they are laccessible ike the others when I upload or send the file?

    Refer to this Thread and Post image denoting those arrows that you actually mean.

    Almost sounds like "Display All Files" is turned on.

    GianaSisca,
    At the top of the Solution Explorer Window, there are several buttons/icons.
    I think the second one on the right is "Display All Files".
    Does clicking on that button make those files with arrows disappear and re-appear?

    Compare the properties of the forms in your project that have the little arrows with the properties of equivalent forms that do not have the arrows - is there a consistent difference?
