It  can dismay and disrupt your thinking if the program coding suddenly appears in what was previously a nice, orderly form.

To go from this:

To this:

is a bit much.

Fortunately, the cause and the solution are simple. The keystroke combination ALT+F9 toggles the "show code" command on and off. So, to hide the code once again, toggle ALT+F9 and you'll be set to go. Either way, your form will behave the same; only the display is different.
