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?!
View 4 RepliesI 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.
Even though I when I create a linqtosql class I mark C# as the language it was always shows up as a Visual Basic file in the App Code file. I can't get it to stop doing that. ????? What is going on?
View 5 RepliesIs there a way to change the colors (or perhaps add an overlay) to the files in Solution Explorer?It would be great to be able to 'tag' the files with different colors so that you can see for example what status the different files have.
View 2 RepliesI used the ASP.net Web Site Administration tool to create a database with two users and two roles. The database created successfully and is showing up in Solution Explorer in the App_Data folder of my project, as expected. The problem is, that when I click on the database I get an error message saying that "SQL Server database files (.mdf) require SQL Server 2005 Express or SQL Server 2008 Express to be installed and running on the local computer." I, in fact, have 3 versions of SQL Server running on my computer. SQL Server Express (default instance), SQL Server Express (named instance for Outlook 2010 Business Contact Manager), and SQL Server 2008 R2 (Developer Edition). If I create a new connection in Server Explorer and then attach the database file, it attaches fine. It's only in Solution Explorer that it somehow is not connecting.
View 1 RepliesI have two web forms inside the same project folder that will be very similar when completed. When I copy a web form and paste it in the project folder by its new name I can see the .aspx file, the aspx.cs and aspx.designer.cs all by the new name. Appears to work perfect...........Why don't these show up when I view the Solution Folder? I was hoping to copy one, make changes and rename the second one saving time. Appears to not be tied into the Project.

View 6 RepliesI have noticed today that when you create a directory in code in a web application the resulting folder structure is not created in the solution explorer (It is fine on disk and app can still access all the files
I am not sure if there is a setting that I am missing or is this a bug?Steps to reproduce
Create a new C# web application in VS 2010. Create a new web page (Default.aspx) and add a file upload control and a button.on the click event on the button add the following code

When the form posts back refresh the solution explorer and the new directory does not appear.Check your file system and the file will be there.Not a massive issue but frustrating.
I am using VWD 2010 Express, usually with several site pages open in tabs. For some reason, when I move from one tab to another, the newly active page is not highlighted in the Solution Explorer pane. Is there some setting that is causing this? I often have two similar pages open, referring to the code on one as I work on the other, and not having the Solution Explorere correctly highlighting the active page make it really easy to be working on the wrong page.

I do not have SQL Express installed as I already have SQL 2008 (Developer) on my Dev machine. When I say add new item -> SQL Database, give it a name and say "yes" to it creating me the app folder I then get the message that I need to have SQL Express installed and I can download it from blah blah.
Why will it not let me use/recognise my installed instance of SQL Server?

I'm trying to migrate an old asp.net 1.1 application to target the new .net 4.0 framework. There are good guides available on this [URL]. However, all approaches start with the assumption that the 1.1 project contains a solution file which one has to open using VS 2010 and go through the conversion wizard.
In my case, the project does not have any solution file, giving me a sort of chicken and egg issue.
Is there a way to add a 1.1 .net soution file with or without VS 2010? Using command line tools? What is so special about a solution file anyway?
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?
I have VS 2010 professional. I am trying to open "ASP.Net Configuration" through Project -> ASP.Net Configuration.

It throws following error

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 have a referencing problem in my project. I have an ASP.NET application where pages are in multiple subfolders. All pages user controls are working fine.
I just want to reference a page class that is not in the root folder (in subfolder from the root folder) in my usercontrol code-behind file like this
if (Page is ar_default){ //}Where ar_default is my page class name as it is in folder name "ar"The user control is also in the same subfolder as the page being accessed.Wnen I use the same method with pages in the root folder, there is no problem at all and it is working although I notice that the classes still not appearing in the coding drop down menu but if I typed the name correctly it work.like so:if (Page is _default){ //}When using the same code with classes in subfolders it is giving this error:The type or namespace name 'ar_default' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)I'm not using any namespaces also.

I have a folder contains 3 sub-folders and each folder contains sug-folders and files.
Anyway I can add into my project by including the parent folder instead of add the files one by one?
When I right click on any folder below the App_Themes folder in VS 2010, the only web file that appears to be able to be added is the Skin file. If I pick a regular folder within the site (other than App_Themes), Style Sheet does appear.
I checked both an existing web application project (VS2008 upgraded to VS2010) and a new web application project created in VS2010 and both yield the same results.
I can create a CSS file in another folder (like the main folder) and then drag it into the theme folder, as a work around. Just trying to determine if I was missing something regarding theme folder and CSS files.
I tried excluding some files and folders in VS 2008 and they just disappear when I just want them to appear "whited" out. How can I change this behavior?
View 1 RepliesSometimes i move files and folders by mistake. Is there a way to prevent this. Something like putting a "lock" on the position of files and folders?

PS I have Visual Studio 2005, but installed only TFS.
I have to modify a exist web application in Asp .Net, the problem is that I have the application just on the server.
I copy the application on my pc but now I have to create the appropriate solution and project to modify it.
I've all the file .cs and the dll already deployed.
How can I create the web application with .net ?
I have first installed VS2005 and then installed VS2008. After installing, whenever i create a solution in VS2008, i am able to create it properly. if i double-click the solution file, i am able to open the project. Recently i had a problem in my IIS 5.1 and i uninstalled it and the installed it again. After doing that whenever i try to open a VS2008 solution file, i am getting the following error The selected file is a solution file, but was created by a newer version of this application and cannot be opened.". I even tried creating a blank solution using
File->New->Project->Other Project Types-> Visual Studio Solutions-> Blank Solution.
I then added a new project to this solution. I closed the solution and again when i double-click on the newly created solution file i am getting the same error as previous one. I found some solution in the net, tried that and didn't work at all.
