retrieve last successful build in visual studio vb.net
in visual studio 2013 vb.net coding, when you click 'Start' and it gives you a popup message saying that it contains errors would you like to run the last successful build?
How can I really get back the code of the last successful build because I have done several changes and I really want the old runnable build back.
I really appreciate all the help I can get. thanks in advance!

As Karen advised, if your code isnt under version control, and you dont have backups (or undo history), then the code is gone.
One option, if you are desperate to see the content of the assembly, may be to reflect it. This is the process of turning the assembly from IL back in to source. The code that is produced will not be a mirror image of the original, as it will have been optimized/shuffled by the compiler, but it is often enough. If you are interested check out dnSpy.
