I notice in VS 2005 (C++) that the pre-defined comment token "TODO"
gets special treatment.  It seems to work like it has a wildcard on
the end.  By this I mean I can have a comment like this:
"// TODO_SOON" and it will show up in the task list.  If I try to do

Hi
I have a solution of 3 projects. A DocProject, a web service and class. In
the class I include the web service with a web reference and in the web
service the only function helloworld has been commented with:

I'm trying to configure some asp.net data components to consume data from a
web service that I've exposed for my application.  I can access the web
service and I can see the dataset definitions that I've exposed.
But I can't get VS2005 to show the Data Sources window unless I'm in ...

I just installed VS 2005 on a new computer.  I created a new Web Application
project, but none of the Web Form controls are present in the toolbox.  I

Hi, I'm getting an odd, intermittant error.  I have several Windows Forms
(VB.NET 2005) in my project that I cannot view in Design mode.  The
application runs fine after a compile but I cannot view the forms in the IDE.

I can access the WS outside of VS 2005 with no problem (from Stylus Studio
or IE).  Trying to add a web reference from VS doesn't work.  At the same

I am trying to create a C++ Windows Form Application that contains managed
and unmanaged code.  My problem is not with the mixed code, but with my User

I have a Visual Studio application built for the Pocket PC 2003 Device.
It has one VB project in the solution.  I want to add a class library to the
solution.
I right-click the VB project file, select Add / New Project / Visual Basic /

I used to use this all the time.
I would highlight some code.... right click it... select "Surround
With"... select "Region" and type in the region name.
Now this option is gone.

How do I print a form design?
In design mode, print is disabled in the File menu.
Is there an existing way to print all the forms in my project? This would be
very useful for documentation and in meetings when discussing an app.

Well, the title about sums it up.  I installed VS.NET 2005 and it used
