Hi!
Somehow, you've managed to get the project into quite a state!
There's no code in the App file for creating the top window. I just did a regenerate on it and everything worked fine.
When you go back and forth, especially with the top window the project is supposed to create, you need to regenerate files. DB really has no way of knowing you've made such drastic changes, that's why there's property in the App for indicating the top window's ID.
I must say, though, you've certainly pointed out areas where DB is vulnerable!;)
But, getting back to your original problem, if you've got the libs built and you open a .dsp/.dsw (Version 6) file in Visual Studio 2005 paid versions, they _always_ convert and build properly. I've never been able to _not_ have this happen. I can build any Visual Studio .dsp/.dsw in the wxWidgets distribution with my Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition with no changes/tweaks/nudges. I just open the file, let Visual Studio convert the file to 2005 format and do a Build Solution et voila, I have it!;)
If you've not got the libs built, and you don't use DB, you can go to wxWidgets<version>buildmsw and open the wx.dsw file there in Visual Studio and build whatever configuration of the lib you like, then build the sample/demo/etc or your own application.

Dave,
I actually have a list of DB bugs I will submit in the next
week. A restart of DB clears them out, but they are inconvenient. Nothing
which stops me from using the tool.
This worked on my project as well. Wow!
In terms of VS2005. While you were looking at this, I
went to the samples folder and started in VS2005. Like you, I am now
running the debugger in VS2005. The leads me to: So what have you learned Dorothy?
Since downloading the .exe program from the wxWidgets site,
as opposed to the .zip file, I am having a different and positive experience. I
have no proof, I do know that I spent the better part of 10 hours working
against 3 installations of the .zip installation and was going around in
circles. I have not had this experience with the .exe implementation
today. I won’t draw the conclusion. However, I will
henceforth only download the .exe setup files from the wxWidgets site.
Have a great weekend!
Thanks,
Peter
