I get that you can select a vertical block in Visual Studio 2008 (alt-drag), but I don't understand how you use it once it's selected. How do you: Move the selection point inside the block and have the text you're typing get inserted on every line simultaneously?

Microsoft officially deprecated the /clr:oldSyntax with the VS2005 C++ Compiler (Orcas); and thankfully the VS2008 C++ compiler...
