I am new to C# and have been given someone elses' code to edit. One of the things that needs to be edited is the windows interface. Is there a way to pull up the IDE to edit the generated windows from the .designer.cs file? Thanks!

Yes, but everything that I've read said not to edit the Windows Form Generated code by hand and to just use the IDE. The .csproj project that I've been given does not have an IDE "window" in it... Is there a way to get to this editor from the information that I've been given in order to edit the program's user interface?
