Hi, I have created a deployment project using VS 2005. By default, files are installed in AppDataFolder. There are also 2 string values added to the registry during the installation.

Hi, I'm using Visual Studio 2005 to script out a database so that I can put it in subversion. Now one complaint that I have is that it puts my stored procedure code in a single literal string, like in the example. below. /****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[MyStoredProc] Script Date: 08/19/2010 16:40:14 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON...
I'm currently editing a good sized class in C# that has a ton of properties, many of which I suspect are just local variables used by a single function. Hence I'm in a mood for some refactoring. Is there a way to customise the search results on a "Find Symbol" search to give more information, like the function where a symbol appears (an...

So I've just started up my most recent website: http://EpicClanWars.com and it would seem that every 5th or 6th time I publish my project out of VS 2005 the Web.Config file corrupts and loses its connection string to the database and a nasty exception gets thrown stating that the web.config file does not contain the connection string th...
hello, I'm working on an old project from an other developer, and can't get something solved ... I have a form in visual studio 2005 which is resizable. But when I resize at runtime, it only allows me to make it bigger, not smaller. It has nothing to do with minimumsize, because after making it larger, I also can't return to the origina...
Hi, I am converting some environment variables to property sheets for some C++ projects. This way when the projects are used from the branch or the trunk in SVN we don't have to use a junction to switch between the branch and trunk. My property sheet, paths.vsprops, is in this format: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?> <Visu...

I'm not sure what is going on with a RichTextBox in a Visual Studio C# windows application. This is not a web app. I have a procedure that processes several files.

For example, say we have websites Red, Blue, and Green (etc). Their HTML may be different, but they are a functionally the same. Previously in one solution we have created one project Col...
I am trying to find a way to develop my own Add-in in C# for Visual Studio 2005 at home, but I don't have the template that comes in the full version of the VS2005. If I get the template, can I compile it on the Express edition? Does anyone have it? Where can I find it? ...

I am currently bug hunting and need to debug into a specific dll in the release configuration in Visual Studio 2005. At some point I closed the solution, did some other stuff and reloaded it.

I already did some fiddling in autoexp.dat to ease the inspection of custom string and other simple classes in the Visual Studio debugger (using vs2005). I'd really love to directly see the value (or approximation) of our custom floating point class. The internal representation is a quad-integer (int mantissa[4], 128bit on x86) that will...
