In Visual Studio (2008) there a command to collapse/expand all the sections of code in a file?
A:
If you mean shortcut then
CTRL + "M" + "M": This one will collapse the region your cursor is at whether its a method, namespace or whatever for collapsing code blocks, regions and methods. The first will collapse only the block/method or region your cursor is at while the second will collapse the entire region you are at.

A:
CTRL + M + O will collapse all.
CTRL + M + L will expand all.
CTRL + M + P will expand all and disable outlining.
CTRL + M + M will collapse/expand the current section.
These options are also in the context menu under Outlining.

You can also right click in the editor an select: Outlining -> Toggle All Outlining

double-check your expand all - i think it should be M+L and not M+P.

ctrl+m ctrl+o is "collapse to definitions" which doesn't work when editting an xml file. For me ctrl+m ctrl+l expands all and collapses all (as toggle), but not always. I have one file open where it works and one where it only expands all, but not collapse all. Both are xml files. No idea why.

A:
Are you refering to the toggle outlining?
You can do Control-M then Control-L for toggle all outlining

A:
CTL+M+L expands all CTL+M+O collapses all
Check here if you're looking for other shortcuts - these 2 are just a few of the many that are available.

As I commented in the top answer, ctl+m+o collapses to definition which doesn't work for xml files. ctl+m+l should toggle it, but for me it sometimes does and sometimes doesn't.
