IDE :: Up Close And Personal With The Visual Studio 2010 Editor Team
Jun 11, 2009
For those you that joined in, I would like to thank you for joining us last week on the topic of Visual Studio Setup.
This week, we have something even better with the team that has built the new editor: Sean Laberee; Kav Latiolais; Selma Ikizto and Brittany Behrens (whom many of you may have already met on the forums) to do a quick walk through of their new features -and of course gather your feedback for the work of sorting through their Beta2 DCRs.

Code Coring Experience Live Meeting the Visual Studio Team Visual C# and Visual Basic languages continue to evolve towards feature parity, strive to simplify programming and deployment with the Microsoft Office APIs, and allow easy interop to dynamic languages. In the tools space, Visual Studio 2010 offers greater support for Test-Driven Development, where tests are written before product code as an iterative approach to software design. In this interactive session you will get a chance to connect with the two Program Managers DJ Park and Dustin Campbell as they walk through the feature areas they feel will have the greatest impact to you and your development teams.

I traditionally work in VB.NET, but have been asked to code the latest project in C#.This is fine as I can work in either language, having had to frequently translate C# code to VB in the past and I've no qualms about developing in either.My issue is with the Visual Studio editor and how many of the tasks that have traditionally been automated for me while writing VB.NET code are missing when writing C# code, or involve a larger variety of key-presses.For example, creating a new #region or function. In VB.NET creating a region involves typing "#r", at which point intellisense kicks in and shows me "#Region". I press "space" and "#Region" is auto-completed, thus allowing me to type the region name, then click "Enter" and the closing "#End Region" is automagically added.In C#, I type "#r"... and nada.. I have to either click "Ctrl + k + x" and select #region from the list of snippets to achieve the same effect.Similarly when writing functions in VB.NET ... the autocomplete creates the structure in seconds, whereas C# involves having to manually add the brackets etc, adding precious seconds to the development process. (or perhaps there is another shortcut key combo)
These are just two examples, but there are many others where the short-cuts that the VB.NET editor provides make coding much faster than the C# editor.I'm pretty shocked actually as C# is so often lauded for being "better" than VB.NET.My question is, are there any plugins which allow autocomplete on the C# editor in the same way as provided to the VB.NET editor?

I have a project written in Vb6, and I can't load it into the Visual Studio 2010-editor/compiler, because no wizard pops up. The idea then was to install Visual Studio 2008 and try to get to 2010 via that. But apparently the downloadlink for 2008 is not working. Does anybody have answers or ideas to my problems.

I've created a simple vb.net text editor using a RichTextBox for a Logic Program. I've got the coloring(highlighting) to to work except for comments. However it runs really really slow after a 100 lines or so.
Note: I call the SyntaxHandler on the RichTextBox TextChanged event.
Friend vbKeys As String = "And|As|Case|Catch|CDbl|Ceiling|CInt|Class|Const|Continue|CStr|Decimal|" & _
"Default|Delegate|Dim|Do|Double|Each|End|Else|Enum|Event|" & _

Does anyone know how to turn off the blank space delimiter of a dot? I have no idea how I turned it on, but now there's a dot where every whitespace charater would be in the IDE's code window.

As I'm typing out Xaml in VB.Net Express 2010, it helpfully finishes certain things for me. Most of the autocomplete is fine, but some of it annoys me and it leads me to wonder if I'm missing something or doing it wrong.
If I type:
<GroupBox Header=
It automatically puts a quotation mark before and after my cursor. I've gotten used to the quotation mark before the cursor - I immediately start typing in whatever property I wanted. But now there is a quotation mark after my cursor! I have to reach over to the other side of my keyboard and press the right arrow key to move past it. I find this insanely aggravating, because it breaks my "flow" while I'm typing. Are you supposed to be able to press a close-at-hand key (like tab, but that doesn't work) to move to the other side of the quotation mark or do they really intend for you to have to constantly use the right arrow key?

I have Visual Studio 2008 SP1 installed and lately it is taking longer and longer to bring up a Resource File (.resx) in its standard editor. Some of the file loads up, but you can see that the screen does not paint/render it 100%.I tried doing some searching on the web and the only thing I came across was doing a edit to the GDIProcessHandleQuota registry entry from 10,000 to 20,000. This appeared to work initially, but the problem came back the next day.I am doing an extensive localization project and this is severely limiting the amount of work I get done.

I am really new to Visual Studio and VB and I am having trouble closing a single form:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.Close()
End Sub
When I use Me.close() associated with this button it closes the entire project and not just the single form can anyone.

I'm in the proccess of creating an XML editor nothing fancy for a project I'm working on!
I got the idea of using the tab control to host multiple Richtexbox controls, nothing fancy.
I got the idea from Visual studio(2010) that it would be nice to have a close tab button, on the tab, but I can on get it to display on the tab
Code:
Dim CurrentTab As TabPage = TabControl1.TabPages(e.Index)
Dim ItemRect As Rectangle = TabControl1.GetTabRect(e.Index)
If CurrentTab.Controls.Contains(mButton) = False Then
[Code].....
I know it adds it to the Tabpage but I cannot find anyway to add to the tab itself, even though the text on the tab is using ItemRect!
Are the tabs themselves hidden like columnls are on other controls!

A Dialog that is added to a Windows Forms project comes with two buttons (OK and Cancel) and Click event subroutines for each. The subroutines close the Dialog with different DialogResult enumerations. Here's the code in the one for Cancel: Me.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Cancel Me.Close() But either statement (changing DialogResult to an enumeration other than Null or Close), by itself, will close the Dialog as well. (Try commenting out one and then the other to prove it to yourself.) Here's the question: Why both? Why not just one or the other?

I write an HTML file with MS Word, and use it on my application. The problem is that I need to close Word or Visual Studio in order to save the file, or compile the code, because each one reserves the file permission rights. The html file is only written by word, and only read from VS. At compile time, the file is copied to execution directory. Is there a way to give both programs simultaneous permission rights?

Does anybody know which version of Visual Studio 2010 contains the full set of Visual Basic SharePoint Templates? I am about to embark on a project to create Visual Web Parts to be used in a SharePoint report.
At the moment I am using Visual Studio 2008 and even though the WSPBuilder is installed none of the relevant SharePoint templates are present.Having searched SO and the web, most advise to install the templates via the Visual Studio command prompt: devenv /installvstemplates
Alas the Visual Studio command prompt is also missing from my VS2008 installation.So, the question remains: which version of VS2010 contains what I need for pain-free SharePoint development? There is a rather large price different between VS2010 Professional and VS2010 Premium, so can anyone tell me if the cheaper version (VS2010 Professional) contains all the Sharepoint templates?

I am just wondering how I can add Direct X references to Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2. I cant find them in the .NET reference list, or the reference list, or anywhere. I downloaded the Direct X SDK for August 2009, but I can not add the .dll files to the reference list. Is there anything I can do to add them? I need the references for programming reasons.

1) Can anyone post a link or tell me the differences between these versions of VISUAL STUDIO please? >>
Standard, Professional, Team Suite, Team Foundation Server Standard & Team Foundation Server WorkGroup Edition
2) I imagine Team Foundation Server WorkGroup Edition is the most expensive and therefore has the most functionality?
3) Are there any others I have not mentioned?

At present I have wrote an application (in-house CRM, vb .net 2010) which allows me to send emails under the selected customer & I categorised these emails.As these are categorised I can return data to display email history in my program by using search criteria:
Dim oMail As Outlook.MAPIFolder = oNS.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderSentMail)
Dim sSearch As String
sSearch = "[Categories] = '" + "[" + tAccount.Text.Trim + "]" + "(" + tShipTo.Text.Trim + ")'"
Dim oItems As Outlook.Items = oMail.Items.Restrict(sSearch)
However the limitation to the above is it only looks at sent items & no other folder.My ideal solution would be to display all email correspondence for a certain contact.
