Even though this was an easy solution.... the key point made within the solution was that the remnents of the prior Button16 would remain unchange. &nbsp;That was the key point.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have been successfully using a Button on a form for more than a year in Visual Basic 2005<br />
After moving this Button into a Panel control I started getting the following run time error:<br />
<br />
'Button16’ is not a member of &nbsp; Test.FormName<br />
<br />
I continued to get this error even when the button was taken out of the Panel control and moved back to its original location on the form. &nbsp;When programing (i.e.; me. button16.visible = false) I get the same error. &nbsp; However all the Events associated with this button continue to function.<br />
When I type “me.” the intellisense (sp?) box list all of the components on this form except Button16. &nbsp;It even shows the Events associated with button16 (i.e.; &nbsp;button16_ click) but not button16. &nbsp;As if there was no button on the form with this name. <br />
I am now unable to change any of button16 's properties within the program.<br />
<br />
Why would the program no longer recognize the existence of a button?<br />
Thanks for the help,<br />

ERROR   'Button16&quot; is not a member of   Test.FormName

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,
