Setting Linq to SQL Type Names in Visual Studio

I love Linq but it can rapidly clutter up the namespace with automatically generated types. Usually these automatically generated types are often irritatingly close to other objects leading to many hours of fun and laughter.

I'm doing this because I'd like to do a project with Entity Framework to learn more about it, but I am on a shared server that only allows 1 SQL server database (which I'm using), and 5 mysql databases.

I'm trying to establish a best practice for Virtual Machines for developers. Currently we work on Windows 7 with Visual Studio 2008. However, we need to experiment with VS2010 and to do this we create Win7 VM's and load what we want in there. My technique is to create a new VM, in this case a Win7 VM, and once it's gone through all it's...

Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 started to ask for elevation

I worked fine in Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 under Windows 7 64-bit, but after some time VS-2010 started to ask for elevation each launch. Yep, it works fine. But running in administrator mode each time is somehow unconfident. Googling doesn't help spread the light on the problem; I hope fellow developers have faced and solved this issue...

Should we migrate from svn to Team Foundation Server 2010?

We are with 6 developer and currently use Visual Studio 2008 Professional with SVN and Visual SVN. As soon as vs2010 is released we will upgrade from vs2008 pro to vs2010 premium.
