VS does not present teh exported code forms properly in any of the forms I exported.
I am trying to decompile the following file as show in RH:

trying to open in VS I get:

An example of this 'About' form which VS cannot show is composed of fclsAbout.cs & fclsAbout.resx

Can this be fixed?

[siegfriedpammer]

This looks like the original code was written in VB.NET using WithEvents declarations. The problem is described in detail in the issue you are referencing.

To answer your question: I don't think this can be fixed unless someone adds a transformation step that handles these patterns explicitly. It seems looks like a lot of work.
