Re-editing a source code?

How does one re-edit a source code using windows form app? for example, I was wondering around the Google search engine on free source codes using windows form applications in visual c++. I downloaded a source code that was already written but not executed and compiled. I took the code copy>paste and debugged it. The windows form app design does come out but only when I debug it...
but once I un-debug it only shows the source code. I want it to be able to be displayed on my visual c++ so I could also edit the windows form app not just the code. I don't want to start all over with another windows form app. Is there a way to edit the form as well with it being revealed? I mean it gets debugged and it shows up...

What did you copied & pasted? A windows form should have header files, resource files and source files.
And why did you copy and paste it? Most websites usually give an option to download the solution (*.sln) files - in the solution file the form is usually located in "Header files" folder and you can add controls to it
