How can I obtain reference of existing language service having its GUID?
Can anybody help me?
As I understand, I can enumerate packages and then take reference to its
language service and compare GUID, but may be there is more elegant way?

I've noticed the little icons next to my menu commands will disappear, and
it seems to happen after I edit the .rc file. For example, if I want to
change the name of my tool window, I'll edit string 120, save and rebuild.
From that point on, the menu icons will be gone. I've ...

I'm trying to find the right GUID to put into the .ctc file so that my
command will only be shown when a C# source file is being edited. I can use:
{0x8B382828, 0x6202, 0x11d1, {0x88, 0x70, 0x00, 0x00, 0xF8, 0x75, 0x79,
0xD2}} to only show the command when any file is being ...

I downloaded and installed VSIP for VS 2003, but nothing changed in VS: No
new project types, no help. While startup of VS 2003 there is a message in
the startup screen: "VSIP licence required". I searched the whole Vsip web
site, but didn't find any clue about how to get such a ...

I'm trying to write an add-in which would require to change the appearance
of code in the c# editor (or other code editors). What would be perfect would
be to be able to change the background color of a specific area of code, or
to underline it in a given color etc.

is there some event fired, when the active project in the solution is
changed? If not how could I track this.
Thanks in advance,

I just installed Beta2 on a machine that previously had Beta1 (and the
associated VSIP SDK). I followed the instructions and removed all the bits
of Beta1 that were listed, then installed Beta2. Installation went smoothly,
but each time I start up Visual Studio, I get the the ...

I have a custom editor which contains various visual objects.  When
the user selects them it updates the property grid with the selected
object.  This works fine, I can update the properties, however the
TypeConveter attribute does not function correctly.  If I attempt to

we created an Add-In for VS2003  and would like to put the logo of our
software on the VS starting screen.
Is there any link, how to do that?
Thanks,

I implemented a custom editor for a proprietary file on my VsPackage.  I am
trying to retrieve the content of the active document to check for spelling
by calling _DTE.ActiveDocument.Object("TextDocument") but unfortunately it
returns me null.  If I dont use my custom editor,

my goal is to create a new editor ( displays the code as structured
diagram ) paralell to the existing C++ editor in MSVS. The base is the
source file, so the presentation isn't the problem. The editor should also
supports the debugging functionalities of MSVS, like Breakpoints ...

I have an add-in I've written in C# with VS.NET2003 on my office
workstation, and I'm finally happy with it.  How do I move the
add-in project to another machine (my laptop) so that it will
still compile and run?

I have looked in the events automation sample and cant seem to find any
example of how to monitor for when a new control is created to then set some
default properties. Any help or direction appreciated...

I'm developing a package for both VS2003 and VS2005, by creating a separate
package for each (not single-sourcing). There's some areas where I can share
source between the two versions, but because there are a number of GUIDs in
use, I have been using conditional compilation to ...

When will Beta 2 of VSIP be available for download to MSDN Subscribers (now
