I created a long code snippet with Snippet Editor. After saving I can see and use it within VisualStudio, however, the code is suddenly trunctated after about 120 lines and there appears some garbled text at the end. Is there a size limit to code snippets? If yes, is this a visualstudio, or a Snippet Editor "feature"?

Thanks,

When editing Silverlight XAML in VisualStudio 2008, the Document Outline panel is not supported by Microsoft.
1) Any helpful tip for navigating a deep XAML markup hierarchy without the benefit of the Document Outline tool?
2) Is this supported in VisualStudio 2010?

I have Microsoft SQL Server 2008 installed. It appears in the add/remove programs window.
How can I create/delete/alter tables and find the address of my server if I don't have Management Studio installed?
I'd like to create the tables and such directly in VisualStudio 2010 premium.
Hi Fiburt,
Today I meet a similar problem and it reminds me about this thread. In VisualStudio, if we open the .csproj file, we see that they tell us to uncomment the two targets AfterBuild and BeforeBuild so as to execute them after and before the build of the current project accordingly.
My questions are: Where are these two targets called in Visual Studio? And how is it handled if the targets are not defined (be commented out) ?
I just moved from VisualStudio 2008 to 2010, and noticed one major flaw:
When I try to use AutoComplete in a C++ Source file for managed c++, a small note in the footer appers:
intellisense for c++/cli not available
Uh, has IntelliSense for c++/cli been dropped from VisualStudio 2010? Is there any way to get this back? It is rather useful...
Hi guys,
as far as i know, visualstudio is a GUI code generator among other things, you drag a button and put it on the window, a code is written for you behind the scene.
my Question is:
what's the GUI framework Visualstudio is using by default???
i know it integrates with some GUI toolkits as Fox, GTK and QT .
I am looking to manage a SQL Server 2008 DB using Management Studio 2005. The reason for this is because our server is a 64-bit machine and we only have the 64-bit version of the software.
Is this possible?
How about managing a SQL Server 2005 DB using Management Studio 2008?
I've finally started playing around with Resharper and am loving it! The only problem is that I use a modified Zenburn color-scheme in VisualStudio 2008 and am finding some of the resharper suggestions and tooltips difficult to read. Do you use a dark backgrounded color-scheme in VisualStudio with Resharper?
when opening a solution from a visualstudio w/o source control, visualstudio just complains about every project in the solution that can't be register with source control, when the number of project is big, it's really annoying.

I'm relatively new to both C# and VisualStudio, using XNA Game Studio. All I want to do is take some folders from a current project which contain .cs files and utilise those files in a new project, but it's proving to be a little trickier than I am used to with Flash/ActionScript.
At the moment it seems like I need to use this process over and over until all the files I want are part of the current project:
Hello,
I am trying to find a good resource on web and load testing. I'm using VisualStudio 2010 ultimate and, while i'm sure it is too early for much material to be released, i'm hoping there are some good resources for VisualStudio 2008 that are still relevant. While MSDN has some good information I'm looking for something more cohesive that i can view on my way to/from work - hence a book or a video
Thanks in advance,
JP
With the recent announcement of .NET 4.0 and VisualStudio 2010, it is becoming ever more difficult to keep track of what .NET Framework versions build on what version of the CLR and belong with which version(s) of VisualStudio.
Is there a definative table that shows these relationships?
Hello,
I am using VisualStudio 2008 to create an MSI installer. I currently have all the files installed in the main directory. Is there a way to select some files to go in a subdirectory?
I can find an option in VisualStudio to do that.
Thanks
Tony
I'm hoping there are some Cell Phone Operator gurus here today.
Would anyone be able to explain how Operators achieve the Visual Voicemail feature on the iPhone (and I assume other newer smart phones)?
If a new cell phone operator that distributed SIM cards wanted to utilise the visual voicemail feature on unlocked iPhone's what services need to be in place to be able to support it?
Is there an open spec or is it completely proprietary?
Is there some cool Moria like theme for VisualStudio 2010?
Mine is highlighting gray font with gray background!
I just can't configure it on Tools-Options-Environment-Fonts and Colors menu. VisualStudio doesn't seem to show an item for this "highlighting keyword/tag system". You select a variable on variable called myVar, and it highlights all with the same name but with a grayer color and gray background. I just can't read it and can't set it.
Faced problem while setting background color for any element in VisualStudio 2010 editor. Selection color doesn't override this background color. So then it's very inconvenient to work with selections in editor.
Case when only string literal is selected it's almost impossible to distinguish colors and see what part of string is selected.
Is there any possibility to fix the problem by changing some options? Or it's a VisualStudio bug?
Hello,
I'm using VisualStudio 2008 Express and I would like VisualStudio (or perhaps an Add-in) to save my whole project to some sort of auto-incrementing archive or whatever would help me recover from disasters. I don't have much need for SVN or complex versioning systems.
I'm just looking for something simple and lean.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Jenny
PS : I looked into the built-in AutoRecover feature but it doesn't seem to save more than a few files.

When I press the Show All Files button in the VisualStudio 2008 Solution Explorer it takes several minutes for VisualStudio to respond. This is because there is an images folder under the solution that contains thousands of files. Is there any way to get Show All Files to not display this folder?
