How do I turn off the feature where closing tags are automatically inserted when an opening tag is typed? I want all auto text turned off.
View 1 RepliesI know I've seen this in one of the video tutorials but I have no idea which one and I have reinstalled VS since then. I think it was Chris Pels that showed how to set up VS so that you had IntelliSense for XML files. The reason I ask is because I'm going through the Security tutorials series and working on the web.config file and the editor doesn't highlight the closing or opening tag when you click on one or the other like it does for HTML or C#.
Not sure if I'm explaining this clearly or not. When working with HTML or C# I can click on the opening tag for an element, say a div tag and VS will bold the type of the closing div tag. This makes it easy to be sure that I'm not messing up my tags. Well this doesn't happen with an XML document. I saw in one of the videos where the author configured the settings in VS so that IntelliSense would work in an XML document. I just don't remember the path to those settings or what changes were made.
I'm trying to run the templated user control example provided by MSDN. Code is as follows:
So according to MSDN this should implement as follows:
[code]...
Designer complains that content is not allowed between the opening and closing tags of TemplatedFirstControl and that FirstTemplate is not supported. So what's missing? I duplicated MSDN's code verbatim

Does anyone know why VS2010 will automatically put an open and close html paragraph tag in my markup everytime I click on save, or save all? It is really obnoxious. I have to close the document and click yes at the prompt to save in order to save my document. If I click save, or save all, it will always place a paragraph tag somewhere in the code and therefore it will need to be saved again.

View 1 Replies I just installed Visual studio 2010 ultimate RC on my windows 7 server. It doe snot show line number. So I went to Tool->Option->Editor, however, there is no where I cna find line number choice.
I used to have Visual Studio 2010 professional beta, it has the same problem, no line number to show up. However, it has a check box: line number. Even if I check the box, still no line number to show up.
I replaced VS Express 2008 with 2010 on my Win 7 laptop a few weeks ago. I have a small simple website with just a master page and a default page. After making changes to the CSS file, it took no effect at all on my webpage's font and colors when viewing it in design mode or run mode. But then, it works when I test my webpage a few days later. I don't get it. Software either work or don't. Can't be both. This latest version of VS Express is buggy. Does anyone have this similar bug?

View 1 RepliesWhen I open up a web application project, VS attemps to configure IIS to open the project. This is fine, but typically there is already an application in that place. For example, we have apps that run at the root, and various feature branches would map to the same virtual application. Even though VS can *create* the application, it won't modify an existing one.
For example, lets say IIS has:
/MyApp
During my day I mightwant to work on MyApp from:
c:ranchesfeature1MyApp
c:ranchesfeature2MyApp
c:archive
elease102MyApp
c:production
elease204MyApp
If I delete /MyApp, then VS will create it when I open any of these projects, but it will never modify /MyApp to point to my current project. So first thing is: Is there any way to change this behavior?
Second question is, is there no way to open a web application project w/o having a properly backed IIS application setup? I know you can have the projects run off the casini webserver, but all of our applications target IIS and rely on inherited web.config settings. /MyApp is expecting to find config values that exist at /Web.Config and a login page for the entire system at /Login.aspx. Trying to run /MyApp in casini fails immediately because of these dependencies.
But what if I am just doing a code review. I don't care to browse the site, I just want to open the project. Is there no way to tell VS to just open the project and ignore the fact that IIS isn't setup right?
I have a project in VS2008.Net3.5 with a Module1, form1 and form2.
[CODE]
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Module Module1
Public frm1 As form1
Public frm2 As form2
Sub Main()
frm1 = New form1
frm2 = New form2
Application.run(frm1)
End Sub
'A menu sub
Private Sub menuGotoSpecification_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles menuGotoSpecification.Click
frm2.Show()
End Sub
End Module
Public Class form1
Private Overrides Sub Show()
LoadData()
MyBase.Show()
End Sub
End Class
Public Class form2
Private Overrides Sub Show()
LoadData()
MyBase.Show()
End Sub
Private Sub btnDone_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnDone.Click
frm1.show()
frm1.refresh()
Me.Hide()
End Sub
End Class[/CODE]
Question:
At the beginning I am opening form1 from sub Main(). Now from the menu I am openning form2. In form2 I am clicking Done button to hide form2 and go back to form1. It works fine in the 1st trial. Keeping form1 open for the 2nd time, I opened form2 from the menu. Now when I Click the Done button 2nd time it just hides up everything. Form1 does not show UP. It just exits the whole application. But in my btnDone event, I have frm1.show().
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.
In both VS 2008 and VS 2010 when we open websites using FILE > OPEN WEBSITE we get a prompt asking us if we want to convert the website to .Net 3.5 or .Net 4.0.
I know once you answer it wont ask again for that site, but it gets annoying when we have alot of websites. We cannot convert the sites because the servers they run on are too old.
Is there a way to disable this prompt permanently?

The problem is I have a laptop that I take to University with me to all my lessons and lectures and it has Visual Studio 2008 installed on it and I work on my assignments in Visual Studio just fine. However when I get home I would like to use my desktop PC which has the exact same copy even from the very same disk of Visual Studio 2008 that is installed on my laptop. The problem is no matter what I do I can't open and work with any projects that I have created on my laptop.
Now if I create the project on my desktop PC it will open just fine on my laptop and I can continue to work with the project but the minute I save and take that project over to my desktop I get the self same error message shown below. [URL] I did do a little research and I found what looked like a solution for some people and that was to change the "SQL Server Instance Name" to SQL2008. As shown below it was set to SQLEXPRESS which is the same as what it says on my laptop copy. [URL] But all this did was present me with a new message as shown below. [URL] Uploaded with [URL] I'm completely at a loss as to what the issue is. Both my laptop and desktop run a fully updated copy of Windows 7 64Bit and have the same copy from the same CD of Microsoft Visual Studio 2008.
