I am trying to find out how to modify the Colors / Fonts used in the Schema Compare "Object Definitions" window that appears after a comparison is done between two databases. The color scheme I have is unreadable, but I cannot seem to find the right settings in the Tools/Options/Environment/Fonts and Colors dialog. Thanks for any help....
function Submit_click() { if (!bValidateFields()) return; } function bValidateFields() { /// <summary>Validation rules</summary> /// <returns>Boolean</returns> ... } So, when I type the call to my bValidateFields() function intellisence in Visual Studio doesn't show my comments.

I'm looking for a .vssettings file that has emacs keybindings in it so that a member of our development team can use them. Anyone already have one setup they can share? ...
I've recently inherited a fairly large web site. The project is set up as a web site in Visual studio, and not a Web Application. For a number of reasons, I would like to convert it to a web application. I started converting the application using these directions from Scott Gu: Migrating a VS 2005 Web Site Project to VS 2005 Web Applica...
Hi guys, I remember when MS was developing Cassini - I believe they rolled it into VS 05/08, so I think this is a Cassini web server question. I am using Windows XP with Visual Studio 2008, and find it quite inconvenient when I want to test a web page/styling with multiple browsers and multiple OSes. Right now I have to deploy the c...
Windows 6 (Vista and Server 2008) support proper symbolic links, which can be created via the CreateSymbolicLink function. But there doesn't appear to be a corresponding function for interrogating a symbolic link to obtain the path of the link's target. I have found out that symbolic links are an implementation of reparse points, and so...
The offending command that msi executes is: .\devenv.com /command "View.Toolbox" /setup This fails with Date execution prevention error. devenv.exe log contains a bunch of errors like this: <entry> <record>120</record> <time>2008/10/21 12:32:01.277</time> <type>Warning</type> <source>Microsoft Visual Studio Appid S...
We are migrating a web applicatin from vs05 to vs08. This application is using Telerik web controls. After I converted the project, and run, I get the exception: "A control is already associated with the element". I traced it down to a use control that has Telerik RadCombo box on it. However, I don't see anything out of place. Researchin...
What does this option do? It is accessible from the Build menu. ...
I'd like to write Python scripts that drive Visual Studio 2008 and Visual C++ 2008. All the examples I've found so far use win32com.client.Dispatch. This works fine for Excel 2007 and Word 2007 but fails for Visual Studio 2008: import win32com.client app1 = win32com.client.Dispatch( 'Excel.Application' ) # ok app2 = win32com.client.Di...
I am using Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (version 9.0.30729.1). My problem is that the only reporting-related toolbox items I see are 3 "Textbox" controls. Where are the other stuff? Do I need to add a reference to a different assembly? Here are the steps I take: 1) Open Visual Studio 2) Add new project --> "Reports Application" 3) Op...
I have an annoying problem which I might be able to somehow circumvent, but on the other hand would much rather be on top of it and understand what exactly is going on, since it looks like this stuff is really here to stay. Here's the story: I have a simple OpenGL app which works fine: never a major problem in compiling, linking, or run...
I have a project that is stored in a Subversion repository. In this repository, in a different folder, I have a set of libraries that I use in many of my projects. These libraries are stored as binary files, ie. the dll's, pdb's, and xml's. Here's an example layout: <repo-url> \Libraries \SQLite \SystemHooks ...
In Visual Studio, two files are created when you create a new Windows Form in your solution (e.g. if you create MyForm.cs, MyForm.Designer.cs and MyForm.resx are also created). These second two files are displayed as a subtree in the Solution Explorer. Is there any way to add files to the sub-tree or group for a Windows Form class? ...
Is this possible? I am looking forward to a tutorial which explains the steps to achieve this. ...
In vs2008, how can I (possibly with a macro) assign a shortcut key to collapse to definitons but leave regions expanded (they must expand if collapsed)? EDIT: I hate regions but my co-workers does not (: So I want this to avoid the regions used by them. I read jeff's post. Ctrl M + O is what I really want to do, if there were not regio...
Inside a visual studio project I have the following folders (for example) foo/ bar/ LongFolderName/ When I open up a file in LongFolderName/ the tab gets labeled with LongFolderName/L...me.ascx when I'd prefer LongFileName.ascx (omitting the name of the folder). Any way to set Visual Studio to ignore the folder name when labeling t...
When debugging an asp.net web application in VS2008 IDE, i feel it takes 'long' to launch the application because it my app is not big (about six pages). I am not using the in-built VS web-server, I'm using the standard IIS web-server on my development machine. (That is, on the 'Start Options' dialog, I have set to 'Use custom server' a...
I can't figure this one out. I can download a win32 binary of flex 2.5.4a from gnuwin32, but I'd like to build the latest version (2.5.35) using Visual Studio 2005. I suppose I could build in in cygwin, but where is the fun in that? http://flex.sourceforge.net/ ...
So, from my experience, masterpages sometimes can lag when you do updates. This is not a new occurance, you make a change, you build, you go to test and the MasterPage is still looking for the old control. Anyone have any tips/tricks they use when this happens? Usually it goes away after a while, but I don't have a while. I am using ...
