Hi
     I am working in vb.Net 2005 framework 2.0. How to capture the cell's
keypress event in datagridview. any great ideas.

I'm (almost) newbie on Visual Studio.
I've a solution created on VS2005 with some Windows Application
projects and a Web Site. (Now, this solution was converted to VS2008)
All Windows Application projects are in ...\Visual Studio 2005\Projects

At the VisualStudio 2008 launch, I thought that one of the MS reps told me

I have two monitors, is it possible to layout vs in two monitors? Some

Hi all. I'm trying to deal with a frustrating problem.  First let me
outline how I have been doing things and what I have tried:
I have several solutions comprised of up to 80 projects in each. When
building the C++ libraries (DLL's) they are always created in a common

I've just migrated from VS2003 to VS2008.  Using C/C++ environment.
On any source text tab, there are two drop-downs.  The left shows the scope

computer to Visual Studio 2008 Professional, and when I was looking at the
available prices there was an academic version available which had a
relatively big difference in price, but I would like to know what ...
