I uninstalled the Express editions of VB and Web Development and
installed the VS Team Edition for Software Developers.  If I open any
existing website or create a new website and select a codefile to edit.
I can move the cursor around in the codefile with a mouse and I can
type characters.  However, I cannot use Enter, Backspace, Delete.  I
cannot edit the code or the HTML.  If I close the project I get the
following error.

The automatically saved setting file 'C:\Documents and Settings\Dev1\My

Documents\vssettings\web.vssettings' is not available for write.  You
can change this file on the 'Import and Export Settings' Tools Options
page.

Any help appreciated.

I am extremely pissed off about this.  If you cannot edit a code file
the whole thing is useless.  I have never had an installation problem
with VS going back to VB5 and InterDev, although I did have some
uninstall issues with betas.

I ran a repair from the DVD.  Didn't help.  I did an uninstall.  I did
an install. No effect. I did an uninstall.  What is the bottom line?  I
am a developer with a fully licensed copy of TS for Software Developers
that I cannot use.  I currently have no VS installed.  I looked in the
MSDN sub and the VS2005 pro is a 180 day trial disk. WTF?  When I get
done being pissed off I will reinstall the Express version of Web.  I
need to write some Windows Services and class libraries though, so I
guess I  will just keep being enraged at Microsoft for screwing up what
was a perfect product line.

Is VS2005 TS for Software Developers simply VS2005 Professional plus
the Team Suite stuff that applies to Software Developers??

If that is the case then we should have got VS2005 pro and not the Team
Edition.  Also, if that is the case it should install and run like
VS2005 Pro and we just do not use those features.

You would think this comment alone would provoke a response from
someone at Microsoft.
