I'm trying to customize the Standard Toolbar in VS2010 "Ultimate version" to add Open Project (on the File menu), but it's not available..

Steps:

Tools > Customize...

On the Commands Tab, select Toolbar, then Standard from the list

Click Add Command... button

Select File in the list

and no Open Project ???

Can't seem to find it anywhere else either. Any idea, or how else to add it?

Thanks!

It's there for me in VS2010 RTM:

Right-click on a toolbar --> customize --> commands --> toolbar --> standard --> add command --> file --> 3 pages down in the list on the right: Open Project

No, missing for me. I have Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate. Which version do you have?

I have the same problem. I installed Visual Studio 2010 recently. I also have Visual Studio 2008. Maybe it's not there if you already have 2008 on your pc or maybe because you told it to use the Visual Basic settings like I did.

I have VS2010 Ultimate and also wasn't able to find this button to add on my install as well. I had my VS2010 setup to use the Web Settings.

I was able to add the button to my menu bar by switching my settings to the C# Development settings. I was then able to find the Open Project button by doing the following:

Right-click on a toolbar --> customize --> commands --> toolbar --> standard --> add command --> file --> 3 pages down in the list on the right: Open Project

I am not sure why this is not available when I was setup to use the Web Development Settings. This might be bug or possibly intentional. I'm not sure which.
