vb inherited form: cannot see from which form it inherits

If I look in the vb code of an inherited form I cannot see which form it inerhits from. I have to look in the hidden file ...designer.vb to see the inherit statement and to read the name of the base form.

Is that normal

    Maybe normal for some, but it developerfriendly it is not.
    Tell me how to distinguish in VS2005 at a glancein the code if a form is inherited or not You have to select 'show hidden files' click on the plus sign under the form to open the designer file code and then see it.

    When you use the wizard for creating forms(or inheriting from a form)...ALL wizard generated code goes into the .designer file...so yes this is normal
