I got a project which was developed using vs2003, but when I open it in vs2005 and convert it using conversion wizard I can't load the forms design page and I get this error:
The code within the method 'InitializeComponent' is generated by the designer and should not be manually modified. Please remove any changes and try opening the designer again.
and I really don't know what it's talking about! I just have to change the interface designing.

Did you keep a back up of the original VS 2003 files? If you did you can compare the two designer files and see what is different. If you don't have the original ones available you can open up the "faulty" designer file in a text editor (e.g. notepad++) and you see if you can spot anything that might be causing the problem.
