In Visual Studio 2008 I somehow dragged around my tool windows so that now

  • Solution Explorer
  • Database Explorer
  • Class Explorer
  • Properties

are all in one long vertical tool window on the side. Now matter how I move them around, undock, unhide, hide, dock them, I can't get them back to how they were.

What do I have to do so that:

  • Solution Explorer
  • Database Explorer
  • Class explorer

are on the top half on the right, and:

  • Properties

is on the bottom half?

+2  A: 

Grab the tab for "Properties" and drag up, you should see the 9 drop hints on your screen. You want the bottom one in the "five-leaf" clover that is in the middle of the toolbar window.

If all else fails, Tools -> Import and Export Settings -> Reset all settings.

nice, I thought I had tried that in all my dragging and dropping but apparently now, thanks!
