When I start a program Form1 keeps showing up allowing switching back and forth between code and graphic screns. Normaly this means that an error acured.
However no error is visable that I can see. What's happening?
 
I presume your program starts in form1 (as shown in project properties)
If you don't have that form1 maximized, the code will be still visible around it even though the program is running. This is normal.

The switching back and forth is probably merely placing either screen over the other like any Windows program does.

Er ... no, not really. If Form1 is your startup, and it is sitting in an idle loop (e.g. waiting for user input), then this is exactly what you'd expect.
