Visual Studio :: Can Just Copy And Paste Files From Old Vwd 2005 Into New Solution In VS2008
Feb 16, 2010
I have a site that was created with VWD2005. I tried to open the solution with VS 2008. This prompted me to convert it which I did. Now when I look at the project in the Solution Explorer in VS 2008, I see all of the files but they are now with in a folder named "2" that's within a folder named "back up". I also see another folder with in the solution that's named _UpgradeReport_Files.
The files for my project that are with in the folder "2" that is with in the folder "back up" are actually in the back up folder for my project in the Visual Studio 2005 folder with in My Documents. I assume this is because I chose the "create back" up option when doing the conversion. I don't understand why these files and this project aren't in the project directory with in the VS2008 folder with in My Documents.
I want all of my files for this project to be in the projects folder with in the Visual Studio 2008 folder in My documents, the same as if I had created this project in Visual Studio 2008 originally. But the conversion doesn't seem to have done this. Instead I seem to be using a solution/project that references the original files with in the back up folder as mentioned above.
Can I just create a new project in VS 2008 and paste these files into it? Will this work? I'm not sure if it will because the original one was created in VWD 2005 which I think uses the .net framework 2.0. My Visual Studio 2008 uses version 3.5 Sp1 of the .NET framework.

I'm trying to create a .NET solution and add class libraries to it. First - in VS2008 I go to File > New > Project > Other Project Types > Visual Studio Solutions > Blank Solution. Then - after VS2008 creates the blank solution I right click on the solution and select Add > New Project > Visual C# > Class Library. However, when I add the Class Library to the solution, the solution icon disappears from Solution Explorer (although the solution name is still in the VS2008 title bar). Why does the solution icon disappear
from the Solution Explorer when I attempt to do this?

If I have the following in an ASP.NET Web Form:
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="tbxUser"/>
and I copy and paste that line in the same page, I usually get the following:
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="TextBox1"/>
Obviously, nobody is going to name their controls in that way (if you don't want to name a textbox, simply don't asign an ID to it), and it's not nice having to change the ids of pasted controls. The same happens if I copy a control without an explicit ID, VS simply generates one for me. Is there any way of preventing VS from autogenerating IDs when I copy-paste ASP.NET code?

It happens frequently when I try to copy & paste code inside VS 2010 with following message:
insufficient available memory to meet the expected demands of an operation at this time, possibly due to virtual address space fragmentation. Please try later.
and I check the memory usage with taskmanager on my computer. It is fine.
In order fix it, I need to close VS 2010 and restart again.

In my company app we have organized it something like the following:
1. Solution (Transcripts)
Solution Folder - Lib
Solution Folder - Debug
Solution Folder - Release
Class Library Project
Web Project
My Question:
1. All my references from Web Project are referencing to the DLL's in the Lib folder under Solution (Transcripts). Why can't we refere to DLL's directly under Web Project why the need of creating a new solution folder "Lib"?
2. When we publish the Web Project. Does that mean that all the DLL's under Lib solution folder also gets published?

I am trying to set up a solution - projects folder structure. I am trying to keep CSS, master pages, Themes, Images and login page as a common web application project and reference them when needed in any other web site or web application in the same solution. Is it possible to do it? If so, is it a best practice? If not, what is the best practice to do this?

So I would like my solution to save in the same folder as the rest of my files. I am a win forms developer so web is new to me.
1) Is there any reason why I shouldn't do that for web.
2) Second how do I do that. I know that I can change the solution's saving location by changing ToolsOptionProjects & SolutionsProject's Location. However, I just want it to use the location of the new website I create and not that specification.

I am having a heck of a time with this. Visual Studio 2005 SP1 can not find my files and javascript files whenever I put it in the subfolders. In the solution explorer, I've created subolfders such as /js and /css. This is inside my main folder: AJAXEnabledWebApplication1css and AJAXEnabledWebApplication1js
In HTML code, when I put this: <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.4.2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="ui/jquery.ui.core.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="ui/jquery.ui.widget.js"></script> [code]...
every single one of them is highlighted that it can not find the specified file. But wait, if I add those files manually to the root folder and to the solution explorer, it is no problem!inside the reference paths for the program, I've also pointed to the root folder location:
c:document adn settingsmynamemy DocumentsVisual studio 2005ProjectsAJAXEnableDwebApplication1

I am stumped by a serious issue in Vs 2008.
I created a Blank solution called HelloWorld.Then I added a new Class Library project by the name of HelloWorldService.After creation of the
Class Library project the Solution name disappeared from Solution Explorer.
As a result of which I can now only add new items into the Class Library project but cannot add new item to the solution.
This appears to be a pretty old problem as I found it in another link on the internet.

It seems to be a bug.Has MS released a patch or a fix for this.

Weird Sunday morning question: I routinely drag files into my projects from Windows Explorer. But I just created a new project and I get the slashed circle every time I try to drag in a file from Windows Explorer. I closed the project and opened another one just to confirm that I wasn't having a foggy Sunday morning problem but I _am_ able to drag files into the this other project. Trying to drag the same file into my new project won't work. What's up with this?!

I've been manually adding the following line every time I create a new user control / web form in one of my ASP.NET web forms projects: Option Strict On. I can't just set it in web.config because it's a legacy project that has user controls / web forms that would bomb out if we turned on option strict for the entire site, so the current solution is to apply it to all new user controls / web forms and slowly update the older pages. Is there some sort of Visual Studio setting / template I can change so that "Option Strict On" is applied automatically when Visual Studio creates the codebehind files?

I just recently upgrade my asp.net web project from visual studio 2005 to visual studio 2010. The upgrade was successful with no problems however im missing some features with this project. The One Click Publish feature(which is greyed out) in the header area of Visual Studio 2010 and the Add Config Transforms feature which is no where to be seen when you right click on web.config. When i create a new web project straight from visual studio 2010, these options work fine.

I am getting the following error when I try to establish ftp remote connection using the 'copy web site' feature on visual studio 2005.
unable to open the web 'ftp://209.*.*.*/httpdocs'. The computer is disconnected from the network.
Why can't I connect to the remote site on visual studio 2005? I can do the same thing on Dreamweaver with no problem. I can ping the IP successfully. I can open the ftp URL on a web browser with no problem.
