I am trying to design an application for Android that makes use of the SlidingDrawer, but I have not been able to use the form (layout?) designer to add this element without producing an exception "IllegalArgumentException: The handle attribute is required and must refer to a valid child."

As of March 17th, I believe I have everything up to date (Eclipse, and the Android SDK).

All the SDK components have been installed.

I have created two Android virtual devices, One for version 1.0, and one for version 2.1 when I figured out that 1.0 didn't support the SlidingDrawer.

I have tried importing the samples provided in the SDK, as well as several other layouts from the web that I have found, all of which produce this same exception.

My programming background is mostly C++, and I consider myself to be a novice programmer, so feel free to talk to me as if I were an idiot so that I will understand. ^^;
