IDE :: Code Snippets Not Appearing With "?" + Tab?
Aug 17, 2009I am trying to use the intelesense snippet. I've read that typeing part of the shortcut + ? tab should bring up the selection of snippets for that shortcut.

Are The .NET Code Snippets Available For C#
Dec 4, 2009where I might find C# versions of the VB.NET code snippets built in to Visual Studio (2008)?What are Code Snippets?VB.NET has a wide-ranging collection of snippets that cover most of the basic tasks one might want to accomplish, i.e. File I/O, LINQ, DB connectivity, and so on. C# has a much smaller and narrower library, mainly stuff for NetFX 3.0, Refactoring, and something called "other", among one or two other items.
View 3 RepliesImplement Code Snippets At Runtime In Vb?
Nov 27, 2009I need to port an old Clipper app to vb.net. It relies heavily on user-written macros and indeed would be almost impossible to create without them. As VB is interpreted, I am sure it must be possible to implement code that the user has entered, but I have no idea how to do so!

VS 2008 VB Snippets For C#
Feb 11, 2010I recently made the switch to a new job and consequently the switch from VB.NET to C#. One thing that I miss is all the snippets that are available in VB.NET. VB.NET comes with ~400 snippets and C# only comes with ~100. Also, I have noticed that the majority of VB.NET snippets are task oriented which is exceptionally helpful when you hit those tasks that you only do every now and again (e.g. DeterminetheAmountofIsolatedStorageAvailable).
So, before I go through the pain of converting my favorite VB.NET snippets over to C#, does anyone know if someone has already done this and made it available for download?
Can Any Of These .Net Snippets Be Reduced To 1 Line
Aug 8, 2011I have :
Snippet 1:
For Each sheet In WB.Sheets
wbSheetNames.Add(sheet.Name)
Next sheet
Snippet 2:
For i = 0 To sheetNames.Count - 1
wb.Sheets(i + 2).Name = sheetNames(i).Replace(currMonth, nextMonth)
Next
[code]....
Is there some construct or method that can do these in 1 line?
Note:All the snippets are different and should not be clubbed. These are the situations where I think there might be a smarter way of doing these simple tasks.
Snippets - How To Position Cursor
Feb 15, 2011I'm making some snippets and I want to position the cursor. I've come acros "$end$" but all examples I see are in c#. Since recently I've started programming in vb.net again and it seems $end$ isn't recognized or doesn't work here. Is there another keyword in vb to do the same?
View 2 RepliesC# - How To Write Global Snippets Program With .NET
Aug 26, 2009I want to write my own global snippets tool for Windows XP and higher. This would be an always running in the background tool that would pop-up on a globally-defined hotkey, allow me to select a snippet with substitution arguments, and then paste the expanded snippet into the text input of whatever control I had been in when activated it, and finally, return me to that previous app/input box.
I know how to do most of the algorithmic aspects, but I do not know how to accomplish these windows-based features:
1 - Global Hotkey: how do I define a key-sequence in windows (from .net?) that will work, even when entering data in another apps textbox? (Usually this will be a browser window)
2 - Pasting Into Another App: I could use the paste-buffer and Ctrl-C, but I want to avoid the extra keystrokes.
3 - Return Control to Original Window: Seamlessly return back into my input stream: how do I do that? In fact, how does my tool even know where I was before it popped up?
The reasons that I want to write this myself is first to learn how (because there are other tools like this I would like to make) and secondly, I don't know of any snippets tools that have the argument substitution that I want.So, the two (2)questions are A) What should be my general approach? and B) how best can I accomplish items 1 to 3 above?
Vs 2008 Broken Snippets Functionality
May 13, 2009Is there a way to reset to the original vb.net snippets that came along with visual studio 2008?

I can see that the snippets do physically exist in C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 9.0VBSnippets1033 but only the following sections are loaded to vs 2008:

IDE :: Snippets Still Lack So Much Functionality After 3 Versions Of Visual Studio?
Jun 16, 2010Why is there such tremendous effort made on microsofts part to hide the fact that you cannot write SurroundsWith code snippets for Visual Basic, and the $end$ and $selected$ reserved words dont work in Visual Basic.
Micro$osft... YOUVE HAD 3 VERSIONS OF VISUAL STUDIO TO GET THIS WORKING... WHY THE H3LL IS IT STILL A STEAMING PILE FOR VISUAL BASIC. I HAVE TO BUY A THIRD PARTY PRODUCT TO ENABLE FUNCTIONALITY THAT YOU REFUSE TO WRITE FOR VISUAL BASIC.
Can you tell this is infuriating? I spent a TON of hours finding out about this sorely lacking functionality that you should have plastered ALL OVER your snippets documentation on MSDN. I hear you're a HORRIBLE company to work for, but should I ever need a job and have to dig at the bottom of the barrel, I think you OWE me a g.d. job now.

Button Not Appearing When App Built?
Nov 3, 2011I have a problem where a button at the top left of a tab control will not appear in debug or compiled. There is no code telling it to hide.
Now, I can make it re-appear by moving it, then moving it back to the exact same position. If I then re-build it will be there.
It will then be there for a number of builds, at which point it might disappear again. This seems to happen for a few buttons in my project. The common factors are that they are on a tab control (standard dot net ctrl) and near the top left of a tab page.

View 2 RepliesAppearing To Change Controls On A Form?
Aug 31, 2010VBExpress 2010 .Net 4.0 I'm trying to have a form that you click on a button and it goes to a new page of the same size in the same location. An example of this type of thing would be the different pages of an install wizard. In this particular project, I have an "instructions" page that you click on that takes you to a new form. On this page is a "back" button that takes you back to the main screen. I'm just not sure how this type of thing is normally done. What I have done works, but you can see the page 'flip' a little, and the form button on the taskbar disappears and reappears as the new one loads.
[Code]...
and I have an equivalent subroutine on the other form to get back. At first I had the Three middle line of code interchanged, which looked much smoother, but for some reason it didn't work on the first click, upon which the form would suddenly move to the wrong location, after which it would work fine, no matter where I moved the form.
I have a feeling that this is probably done in a completely different way, but can't think of a better way of doing it. One way would be to just use one form and change the controls instead, but it would get quite cluttered.

It's as if the two files are somehow out of sync
