When writing the HTML part of a page in a VS2008 Web App, the editor keeps formatting the HTML with linebreaks that break the readability of the code (to my eyes). Can this feature be disabled? Thanks ...
From what I understand, #define x y and const int x = y; should work identically under the Visual Studio compiler, but const int x = y; is the preferred method. The C code I have looks something like this: static const int x = 100000; void SomeFunction(...) { volatile static int y = x; ... } The problem here is with the decl...
I remember I could add modifiers to a watched variable during debugging to make its display in different formats in Delphi. Such as "str,m" would display string in its binary representation. Similarly I'd like to look at binary representation of a string to see character values for .NET applications on Visual Studio 2008. What's the eas...
When trying to debug a ASP.NET MVC app, the breakpoints in my controllers arent getting hit. When entering debug mode they just show an empty red circle with a warning triangle instead of the normal full circle. This is strange because debugging was working fine until now, and no configuration changes have been made in my environment for...
It's annoying in VS2008 when I press the END key, and my cursor jumps out to way beyond the end of the line of code, because I have trailing whitespace from a copy+paste or reformat. I would like the END key to ignore whitespace. How can I best do this? I thought of using AutoHotkey to catch END keypresses, and replace them with "CTRL+...

Has anyone got any guidance, better yet, tools for generating up a "starter" BizTalk solution ? I've been reading various blogs, articles, etc. and they mainly go for splitting down the solution into seperate projects, one for schema, one for orchestrations, etc. I'd like to follow this practice, but it's a pain creating the full set, ...

We have tremendous problems with Visual Studio (2008, if that matters) locking up and slowing down when accessing projects over a network drive. It can take several minutes to open a large Web site project through a mapped drive, and saving even a single file can take a minute or more. I fired up Wireshark and watched the traffic. VS,...
I have a solution with a few different projects in it: a couple dll projects, a console project, and a couple WCF projects. The console project uses a dll from one of the projects, but I have VS set so that the console project has no dependencies. However, when I debug the console project VS launches, or builds all my projects. This i...

I have not been able to find any clear instructions on how to do it. I am not sure if it can be done. Does anyone have any links to a possibl...
I have an ASP.NET 3.5 Website (visual studio lingo), but the site continues to grow and is looking rather cowboyish among other things. I'd like to see this get converted into a Web Application (namespaces and all). Is this something that can be easily done in Visual Studio? If not, are there any other tools out there that could creat...

I'm code purist, preferring own style of code formatting (opposite to suggested by VS 2008) I've turned off auto-formatting options in Tools/options. In most cases it works. But noticed that after refactoring VS demolishes my code... (Eg after using such option as encapsulate field, extract method, using surrounding snippets...) This ...
In all versions of Visual Studio I have used so far I have a problem with copy/paste operation. After using the application for a while(and in many cases very short while) when I copy some words or lines and paste, nothing gets pasted. Then I click ctrl+c multiple times and then the content gets copied and I can successfully paste. This...
