I read a description of how intellitrace in VS2010 Ultimate is like going back in time, in the execution of your application. However, this sounds just like moving the line marker to a previous line (that yellow arrow in the breakpoints margin to the left of the code, when you are stepping through code). Thanks ...
Okay, I'll try to make this as straight forward as possible. I'm using VB.Net in VS2010, I'm attempting to self-host a WCF service. (It's actually in a windows service, but I'm trying to do this via a simple console app. Below is the code in question, the TCP/IP addresses are injected directly here. The WCF service itself is simply a ...
I created my first Silverlight application. In the client project, I want to define a Dataset object. To do so, I figured I first need to reference the System.Data namespace in the dll of the same name. When I add a reference to the dll, I get a msg that "it was successfully added," I see thje dll in copied to the bin folder, and then ...
I'm developing a local app with friends and we're using svn, but we have crystal reports, but it saves the last server used by one of my friends when doing the commit. I tried changing the server programatically using this piece of code, but it didn't work :S *UPDATE: it seems that the .rpt keeps a history of the server names, and some...
I am a sole developer currently backing up my source code to .zip files on an external drive. Is it worthwhile for me to start looking at code repositories? What's the simplest, cheapest option for me? (ie. There is no need for lots of fancy features as the repository is just as a backup and not for sharing with a team). ... Forgot to m...

When I attempt to add a data source my only options are: "Microsoft Access Database File" "Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5" "Microsoft SQL Server Database File" Do I need VS2010 Pro to use LINQ to SQL or EF? I thought I could d...
I am using Visual Studio 2010 to make a 3D model in C++ and OpenGL. I started a project on my home pc, and then decided to put it in a repository, so that I could get the code for development on my laptop and not have to keep transferring files between the two computers (and also just to get some practice at using source control). The p...
Opera is my browser of choice, so it's set as system default browser. But for debugging web apps in Visual Studio I prefer IE so I set it as default in File-Browse With... What's weird here is that Visual Studio 2010 keeps changing its default browser to system default in an unknown manner (VS restart is one of the situations). Is there ...
Hi, does anyone know of a tool or extension to Visual Studio 2010 to count non-whitespace (e.g. all characters but not spaces, new lines etc.) for current selection in a document? Nice to have for code golfing :) I have a command line tool, but an integrated tool would be very nice. Also I would prefer something to evaluate current sel...

When I debug the project (F5 or start new instance) the tests are started and when the first exception is thrown the debugger ...
I'm using VS2010 Schema Compare to compare two databases - let's call them 'PerfectDB' and 'DodgyDB'. I want DodgyDB to have its schema altered to match PerfectDB. I select PerfectDB as the source and DodgyDB as the target, and compare. When I hit the Write Updates button, I am getting the following error: SQL01268: .Net SqlClient...
How can I get VS2010 to use the 3.5 C# compiler instead of 4.0? It it even possible, or do I need to have a separate VS2008 solution file to coerce compilation with the 3.0 compiler? (updated to fix compiler version #) Update: My motivation is to get the productivity of developing in VS2010, but it needs to run on a build server that ...
I've created a number of Crystal 2008 reports that are running in InfoView. This isn't working out too well, and I'd like to create my own Crystal Reports report viewer application in VS 2010. I'm too familiar with hosting Crystal reports inside a C# application. So I guess a couple basic questions. 1) Does VS 2010 contain a Crystal Re...
I'm thinking of developing a tool that runs under Visual Studio 2010 and am struggling to find sample applications, source codes, and especially handouts that help in this journey. I wonder if anyone would have any recommendation of material, or website. Thanks ...
Having spent the last couple of months playing with Visual Studio 2010 and enjoying all its benefits; I only just noticed a great new feature that I haven’t seen published anywhere and would probably never know about unless I had just happened to stumble on it like I did. So it has got me thinking, there are probably a ton of new "littl...
With Visual Stuido 2010's multi-monitor support, I like the support for code windows, but the support for tool windows is seriously lacking. For instance, I want to restore the behavior when double-clicking on a floating tool windows to "docked", not "maximize". How do I restore the previous behavior when double-clicking on a floating ...
